Title: 2012 Fall Black Bear, Skull and necklace done. Modified, quick update
Post by: h20hunter on September 29, 2013, 02:21:58 PM: Picked up my fall bear skull and claw necklace. It will look very good on the wall next to this years spring bear.

Here is the bear "on the paw"..........

And here is the trophy for the wall. The bear measured out at 16 and 3/8.......not to shabby for my first bear. The work was done by Michelle Nelson.

Cheers and go Hawks.

Post by: h20hunter on October 11, 2013, 06:31:52 PM: So my vision was to have the spent bullet as a pendant. I don't know about the rest of you but a recovered bullet from your first bear (or deer/bison/buff/monkey/fill in the blank) is about as cool as it gets. Mine was considered lost.......but now it is as it should be.
