Shot this one in Manitoba. About 400 pounds but he was so far back in the bush we had to skin and quarter him to get him out so I do not know an exact weight. I'm doing a video on the hunt which will be up on my youtube channel next week. Really fun hunt in the Duck Mountains.

Nice bear. How far did he travel? I assume it's a male.

Who did you go with in the duck mountains? I used to guide there. Good times and lots of coloured bears.

If there is no scale available........... it can weigh as much as you say it does! It's your bear.

Nice bear Bernie!


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Made a big loop and ended up in a low, wet area near the stand. Wan't my best shot as you will see when I finish the video, but he was dead in a short time nonetheless. Pretty upset with myself over the shot but it turned out okay.
