does anyone have tips on how to judge a bear on the weight of it.
This can be tough for someone to do, specially for someone with not allot of expierence. Everyone thinks bear are all 300lbs+, kinda funny as no one seems to shoot a 150lb dressed bear anymore. I'll name a few things that come to mind for me when judging bear size, a few of these were already mentioned.
Small Bear Characteristics-
Lots of room (light) under the tummy
Small framed
Long looking ears
Ears straight up
Narrow space between the eye's
Big Bear Characteristics-
Not much room (light) under the tummy
Big framed
Short looking ears
Ears go out the side of the head
Wide space between the eye's
