RE: Judging Black Bears
Here are a couple of things I have picked up on judging bears size.
1. If the bears ears look small compared to his head, there is a good chance that he is a big bear.
2. If the bears head looks small compared to his body, chances are that he is a giant bear.
3. If the bears belly is very close to the ground then he is probably a heavy bear.
4. If the bears teeth are worn to nubs, and you can tell because he stood on his back feet and looked you in the eye while you were in a 12 foot stand, he is a BIG BEAR! SHOOT FAST!!!! SHOOT FAST!!!!
