Got Him Officially Scored

[just_a_hunter]

I've had this fear that this whole situation was a little too good to be true but an official B&C scorer out of Meeker, Co. confirmed it is not a dream. 21 13/16" official score. He was a tad over 7'6" and 15-20 years old.

The biggest trophy is I was lucky enough to be able to take him with my 7 year old daughter right by my side and have a pose' of kids and family around to be able to make memories with. South East Utah bear.

Thanks for following along!

Need to get a name tag for him that reads "Bruiser". Well done.

'Course, you can always call him "Old Ephraim, Jr"...

That is an amazing bear and the hunt was made even more special by sharing it with family. Congratulations!

Thank you all very much.

I didn't weigh him as he was skinned, quartered, and packed out. I know this number is the most over used number when bears are talked about, and I don't use it lightly (pardon the pun) but I know he was north of 400 lbs with no fat.

Here is a picture of him on the bait a couple days before I took him.

Here?s a photo that shows his bulk. He really had VERY little fat. I would love to have seen how big he'd be in early November.

That hump on his back does make him look like a grizz. (almost). You shot the last of his kind in Utah. Congrats on a great bear.
