Jack,
You wouldn't happen to have any links or info on that massive record size bear that was shot illegally last year would you??? I think it was shot with a crossbow?? I know WNEP 16 reported on it.



Jack helped me out where to look.
This was a legal kill. The media put a anti hunting spin on this hunter when it was initially reported. (which is pathetic.)


Shot legally in Pike County Pennsylvania,
This is the potential #1 World Record Black Bear. The results should be in after the 60 days of letting the skull shrink. I am still looking for final verdict.

He had a field dressed weight of 744lbs and live weight of 879lbs

Just like Clinton county is not always number 1 or 2, this bear was not shot last year.

Shot two or three hunting seasons ago 10/11 season. I cant find any follow up reports to see if it made the #1 in the World. There hasnt been any bear close to this size that I have heard. Last specs I have we're for 2012, but it looks like 2012, 2010, 2009, 2007,2006,2004,2003 Clinton was #2 and Lycoming is a better than Clinton in almost every year. I cant look back past 2003 for stats. I don't really keep track every year.
Do you work for Pa Game? You really know Pa game statistics of the top off your head. Its impressive.
