what did yours weigh?

[Boar]

Yea got mine to but having a hard time believing the age. My bear about 325 an live weight would have put it mid 350 or so Maybe? wellthey aged it a 3yrs. The first year their just puff balls an if seen 2nd year cubs guessing their anywheres between 60-80 lbs maybe a hundred at the high end. just think that this bear put on another 150 to 200 lbs in another year is hard for me to accept, then again i'm not a bear biologist either.I was guessing the age at 4-5 yrs. But in the no qouta we do have alot of corn, beans, oak stands, so the food is not scarce around here. If I sat everyday at the local buffet I guesee i'd get heavy in a hurry two, but this kinda boggles me. Later boar

Remmington that is a awsome bear your son got, nice to see the picture again, getting me really pumped up, along with collecting bait again its all i think about. Boar

[remington 300]

that is hard to beleive about the weight to age. how did the teeth look?,if you remember, id guess a 325'lber at 6-8 maybe 10 years old, but we hunt zone 12 so food sources a little different than your area.

either way you got a nice bear, i also remember your pics,
