That's a brute. The hair is skimpy on bears in AZ. When one looks big it's usually a giant.Feom earlier today. Im not very experienced with bears, but he seemed pretty good sized.

You put in a hell of an effort man. Makes it that much sweeter when it happens. What’s next?
Although it may have been a "down" year for you, it sounds like you were in elk about every day. Well, except for the day you left elk to go find more. Anyway, great hunts don't always require a kill. One of my better hunts, I never pulled the trigger.
Really enjoyed following. Thanks for taking the time. BTW, did you post from your phone or laptop?
