He guessed mine would square at 7'8" but I dorsal cut him, so we'll never know for sure.

Using yours as an example, that'd make him 7'10" which is close enough to call 8', right? (grin). In seriousness, I have absolutely no problem calling it a 7 1/2 foot bear. Of course, yours got me on skull size! Gotta get back up there if for nothing else than to beat your skull (grin)!
