FOLLOW THE HUGE BEAR HUNT..Pemby style..

[proguide66]

Gilmore excitedly called today for his personal camera man ( ME) to come along on the 3rd season of trying to arrow a big boar on his 'back 40'
Jumped in gilmores truck and off we went.The big boar was yet AGAIN doing his seasonal 'routine'.
We scurried along the back edge of a field to hopefully have a face to face collison with the brute.
All went 'perfect' to only have the bear decide to go straight instead of his usual 'right' and safely lumber past at around 65 yards......the saga contiunes!!...you guys guess the length er even 'weight' of the spud eater!!
Will try to make this a video hunt for all to follow...

the bear is 'just ' in sight and comes near'r

Nice footage and decent bear too. Next time we want to see the kill video

[landphil]

you guys guess the length er even 'weight' of the spud eater!!

I'm gonna guess 225 lbs and 5'11", unless you are referring to the bear.

[sparkes3]

try a predator call to see if you can get him closer

Head isn't that big tho right? Not a huge pumpy kin. Good eater for sure.

[BlacktailStalker]

Solid 7' bear and 400lbs. Hope you guys get him.
Big blackies get that extended neck like a polar bear, his body shivers when he walks like Rosie ODonnel coming to an abrupt halt.
Make sure you just post a pic of his tail and with a beer can for reference and tell us he's 587lbs. We'll believe you.

Skull size doesnt mean shit on any bear or cat.

I'm goin solid 7 maybe a bumhair more...as far as the weight...du- know...never weighed one...but my 8ft'r was hell to roll over by myself...still dont know though...tummy full of spuds is hard to judge!!
Gilmore has a digital scale in the barn though....we should be able to weight the whole bugger....IF he takes a 'right' instead of the path he went today.....fingy's crossed.

We were about to but then realised our beer might foam up in the call!!!...like I said , PEMBY STYLE !!!

Boy the camera adds about 40 pounds!! I look bigger and the bear looks smaller.

That was pretty cool, it's the closest I've been to this guy in the past 2 years. We have a few bears on the farm here and most of them you can drive the tractor to within 75 yds of before they even notice you. Not this guy, you even look his way and he's gone, he never runs off he just walks off just like he did on the video and you never know when you'll see him again. Its only the 2nd time I've seen him this year. He's been a pretty big bear for the past few years and he looks really big come fall time.

It's been cool watching him grow up...but all good things must come to and end...and good things end with Gatehouses' bear curry!!
