Couldn't resist jumping in on this as I love to hnt bears and have been doing so for the last 40 years. the two biggest bears I've ever seen were in Manitoba One was at tTrapper Don"camp and it was an honest 8 ft. I just couldn't close the deal on him. THe other, which I,ve been after 4 yrs, I have on video tape and would weigh 650 + and he is still there !
My personal best came June 5th, it squared an honest 7 ft plus( no streaching) weighed 557 on a scale and greened scored a little shy of 22". It was skinney, had no fat on it, all mussel with massive forelegs. same bear in the fall may have gone over 650, just a guess. Long story but I didn't get a single picture. I also got a bear in Sask the went 6'10 nose to tail ( 20")and a 6 foot in Manitoba, pure blond, went 453 on a scale and scored 20 1/2. don't know how to post a picture but if you want to see it send an e-mail and I will send one.
