Got it done this week!

[FIGJAM]

After 5 days chasing bears spot and stalk in Idaho my buddy and I both got it done on the last day of the hunt. 405 yard shot with my 270wsm put it down. Spring bear hunting is a sweet deal isn't it? It kind of fills that gap in the year between coyote hunting and scouting for deer and elk.

Had the opportunity to glass this big ol grizzly across the canyon in the spotter. No the best pic, I was just holding the phone up against the spotting scope. Also saw some big grizzly tracks on top of our footprints from earlier in the day....I wear a size 13 and they made my feet look small! Lol.

Beautiful chocolate phase...great hair....heres some advice...
If you are doing a rug...great..use all the hide...if a shoulder mount..that leaves a lot of hide to use for something else...
I have made pillow covers...a bear rug from the remnants....
Choose wisely.....

Very nice. I got out for a few days last week but every day it was pouring rain and foggy.

Tough to glass anything in this.

We had a couple days like that. Were confined to the truck driving old logging roads. Weather finally broke and the mountain came alive.

I dropped it off at a place in Missoula to get a rug made. They said 6-9 months, so it will be a while
