Good work Sir. It's been a learning year for you and you tuffed it out and were rewarded. Here's to many more successful seasons. You can go deer hunting now and stop for a bear peperoni break. Cheers

Thanks all. Ground it all up. Double grind, #4 and #8. Vacuumed and froze. Meat score was tiny as expected (even a bit smaller, should have taken the head cheese in hind sight) but I'll take the freezer top off. Still pretty stacked with 2020 deer/bear and a bit of 2019 as well, so it was an appropriate amount for our situation.
caddisgirl garden is in full swing, fishing time and berry season coming up, then deer/grouse time again, maybe a fall bear we're struggling with deer. Lots of good food to be had
Good job Caddis. I am always disappointed in the amount of finished meat off a bear but boy does it taste good!

One thing I was thinking about, is my thoughts about the benefit of small bears being easy to "deal with" from dragging around, packing out, etc. Other than "packing out", everything still takes the same amount of time/effort and you still lose the same amount trimming, still have to clean and put away all the same gear. Overall weight versus meat ratio definitely isnt a linear scale, can go up from 1/8 to to 1/2 with size.
