Here's one of my buddies clients from Denmark with an 2008 spring black bear in a brown phase, he was taken mid may and roughly 400 + so this would have been a huge bear in the fall, you can tell how big the bear actually is when draped over the 21ft jetboat, the client obviously rebooked with HC but on top of that he also bought the jetboat with a spare engine! (TNT will know about HC's boat)
Anyway, thought I would share, what do you think, a shooter??:cool:

good pic of him on the boat,


It gives a good idea of the size of him as pictures of bears don't do them justice.

My buddy suspects a min 400lbs but keep in mind it was in the spring and most likely only out of the den for a few weeks, so if it were a fall bear and he resides were the salmon spawn, well he would be a barrel!

Yeah Bernie that bear is a hog!! I believe it taped out nose to tail 6'8. Also to give you guys a better idea of the bears size the hunter is 6'5 300+lbs.

Sure is a hog, was at Jamies yesterday and they haven't measured the skull yet but bears seem to be the hardest to truley show in a picture as they always appear smaller but I do like the boat pic as it does give a good indication on his size, sounds like I may see you on Jamies territory this year, should be good for a laugh or two!
