Girlfriend loves it too. The main reason she wants me to get one (she likes animals and doesn't want me killing any) is for the summer sausage. I'm kind of a picky meat guy, but Del Fox does a good job. In the future I'm going to bring them sacks of meat to avoid the "cut it off the bone" charge, a flat rate which I think is in the neighborhood of $80. To just have them process pepperoni and summer sausage for you I believe its just a per pound charge. :twocents:
I categorize bears in 50 lb increments, because I can't tell any better than that, but this one is in my 150 lb category.

Just remember that the bigger the bear the more it will cost at the taxidermist. and do you have room somewhere in your house for a really big one? I have a small one on my wall that takes up a lot of space, if he was any larger he wouldn't fit there. he has a great hide and still looks awsome, just not huge.... Just food for thought
RT,
IGNORE THIS! I hope you have all kinds of trouble trying to figure out how to pay for such a rug and that he won't fit on any of your walls :chuckle:

Looks rather full of himself, all strutting around like he owns the place. He probably does that thing in the woods, too.
:chuckle: This is where I was going from the thread title. Beat me to it.

I've decided that the best way to eat bear is pepperoni and summer sausage. I figure I usually have some venison and elk or other things that are good as burger and I don't need to eat bear that way.

I agree. Between my dad and I we have shot 6 bears in the past 10 years. Pepperoni sticks and summer sausage is all we have made out be a anymore. It is very good and nice snacks.
But in regards to the original post, that be a looks around 150-175. About 5 ft. I would say. Looks male. Females has skinny faces is the best way I can tell.
