Bear Pics
« on: September 21, 2013, 10:12:00 PM »
Since I'm new to bear hunting I don't know what these guys might weigh but they sure don't look like they've missed many meals! Anybody got any ideas? Just switched jobs so now I'm gonna have to wait till the second day of season to hunt this stand. 10/2 can't come quick enough!

Its not the size of the animal you hunt that matters. Its how you hunt the animal.

Great pics!
I dont know the weights.
Some guides say if his back is between the top and the fist rib line down hes a shooter.

A trick you can do is cut a couple 5 or 6 feet poles and leave them on the ground. then you can get a length of the bear and that will help judge as well.

I know id shoot everyone of those in the pics if one of them came by my stand.

Those look big enough to be "keepers" in my way of seeing things.

I bet you can't eat one in a single "sit down"...lol

Hunt hard, hunt smart, and you might get a new rug to admire.

God bless,Mudd

I have taken 2 Bear's with a bow, both big enough to score P&Y. I am no expert by far but I would say those are some nice ones in the pics. I would say around the 300 lb mark as well +or- a few pounds.
