This spring season i shot my first black bear in montana. i have not officialy had the skull scored yet but i have it measured at 19 3/8". pretty nice bear for my first.
I think people are getting scores and actual measurements mixed up. There is no way a black bear skull is measuring 19 inches!!!!! The world record, according to Boone & Crocket is 14 12/16 length and 8 14/16 width.
