Nice Spring Blackie...

[DavidAk]

My pard did a guided hunt in western Alaska this past month. His guide put him on a nice blackie, almost 6ft squared...

It died in a creek...took a bit of effort to fish him out, but man what a trophy....

[Dude]

Always wanted to hunt bear!

 

[Thread Killer]

[ELKCHSR]

got some more pics?

 

[Thread Killer]

i hear that they measure the skull for B&C. if so, what was it? Thanks..

 

[Thread Killer]

Should add, not that it matters as long as your friend is happy.

 

[DavidAk]

I think the skull was almost 18"!

I'll get some more pics. This is from the pack out...

 

[Thread Killer]

wow! the guide must be a big SOB to carry a whole bear out like that. that's one dude i'd not want to mess with!

very cool..

Dave, realizing you didn't get much love from the ODD crowd/mod, I'll play. Nice bear. Looks bigger than the ones Moosie shoots. You should post it over at pristineventures. Maybe lighten the pic up though.

That's some funny stuff! I love the backpack picture, especially since I'd probably shoot a bear that small.

thats the first thing I thought. Maybe my monitor sucks or the lighting is bad ?!?! I'm not one to "bust chops"..... but it looks like a Black Baboon ? Congrats on the "bear" !!

 

[DavidAk]

You guys are obviously more astute than the ODD gang...grin...

 

[Thread Killer]

less hostile too...

That's what I'm thinking too. That's the illusive baboobear, very rare indeed to parts of Alaska. Good job.

Looked at those pics several times last night and thought I had been awake too long

What's the real story to the primate?

 

[DavidAk]

It's the elusive glacier variety...

 

[ELKCHSR]

LOL... Thats why I was asking for more pics since it's out in the open...
