look what I got on my camera
GregB:
He looks big enough to show him plenty of respect I'd say! :)
Ryano:
I'm going to throw a guess out there and say around 400# give or take 50. We never had bears around this area in Pa until just a few of years ago. Now it seems they are showing up around here more and more.
Little John:
Cool picture Ryan, and nice to know they are around. Nothing really to compare him to and he looks big, but I doubt he is in the 400# class. 400# is a big black bear. A huge bear will have a fat head and his ears will apear small on his head. Would you have any chance of getting a tag to be able to hunt him? Sure is black and pretty. I did not get a tag this year, they sell the archery tags here on a first come first served basis on some day in July, I spaced it off till noon and they sold out at by about 9:00 oclock. I am still mad, and with them terrorizing my elk camp to boot. Again cool picture. Kenneth
PeteC:
Excellent picture Ryan.If I had to guess,by comparing him to your salt block,I'd say 350#.. God Bless
Ryano:
Kenneth, we grow them XXL in PA. The state record black bear is over 800# This guys actually about middle of the road. I can buy a bear tag over the counter hear but I never have its only a three day gun season here and a 2 day archery season during the middle of the week. No dogs or baits. It just ain't worth it, not yet anyways. Maybe if they continue to get more densely populated or they eventualy change the laws a bit.
