I hope Chuck gets him next week........I'll help drag and skin!!! But I might just shoot him if I got the chance........It would have to be the ideal situation!!

If Ron shoots him I wonder what will kill him first, the broadhead or the HANDSHOCK from that Hill!  :D    ;)    :p

No more than 200...Bears always look bigger than they really are. I wouldn't pass it up....

Chuck...you have to stop drinking that blue juice    :eek:      :laughing:

Now this bear is between 3-400 lbs...

 

 

This one tipped the scales at 253#

 

The one with Pink ribbon weighed in close to 220#
