Wow - great story and what an awesome bear   :clapper:
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

Tracy, any idea what that bruin weighed? Is that a big bear for Wyo.? Most of our black bears are under 200lbs. But there are a few big boys over in the coast range where they have moderate weather year round.

I still thought with my luck the bruiser wouldn't show himself.
Tracy, from what I've seen, Lady Luck is on your side    :thumbsup:  

I also realize that you put in a lot of hard work to make success happen. You are probably one of the most premier outdoorsman in Wyoming.

Snag, my bud had a big scale and a forklift. We weighed him, and he was 330#. He felt like alot more getting him out of the forest. Yes, this is a big spring bear for Wyo.
