They didn't get to help with this one, but they were really happy that they got to stay up late to see it.

However much that bear weights imagine an equal bag filled with pudding and you have some idea of what it’s like, so there you have a 200/300/400 pound bag of pudding your trying to move

I have never see anything so limp as a dead bear

When you harvest a bear like everything the work begins. We welded up a cart we pull through the woods to make the job easier. But some circumstances that is hard to use also. Nothing easy about dragging a bear. Like said a bag full of pudding with very course sand paper attached to the bag.

Had a few difficult drags over the years, but this one is most memorable. I arrowed one off a bait that spun around 180 degrees, ran straight under my stand, and made a b-line for my pickup. Walked out and found him piled up right at my tailgate. Wish I had taken a photo but that was long before cell phones.
