I just checked some cameras today and I got a couple videos of a bear or bears. I been hunting this property for about 15 years now and this is the first sign of bears I've seen. I'm a total noob when it comes to bears so I'm wondering what others thought on just how big they are and if they are sows or boars. Either way I think its kind of cool to see something other than deer.

Darn I cant get the videos to work for some reason. Never had any trouble before.

Cool videos .

I would say a "nice" bear.   Definitely not last year's cub or anything like that. 

Hope you get him.  You in no quota zone?

Ear's look pretty tall still, thinking about 150lb class.

This is in area 45 so unless I can snag a surplus tag no bear hunting for me. Never bear hunted before so it would be just for the fun of it kind of deal. I wont know how much this bear frequents this area until the end of August when I check my cameras again.

This time of year, unless you gots lotts of nuts and berries un your woods, ya might not see him again., but its all up to the bear. he could be happy there. 3 main ingredients for bear, food, water, cover. looks to be about 3-4 years old, no way of telling gender. if he was 1-2 it'd be with mamma. thanks for sharing!. word of caution. once you bear hunting, youll never wanna stop. Its the greates thrill for me!!
