We watched him come a few hundred yards. He ended up disappearing in a small thicket and I had somewhere I had to be. So I couldn't wait him out for better shots. I wish there were something in the pics that acted as better scale. The pics I got in no way do him justice. My best guess is 450-475 lbs. But I could be a bit light because of the wide open space he was in. One way or the other.............to anyone who would shoot him........likely a bear of a lifetime.
