    I'm new to bear hunting and would like some feedback as to how big some of you think this bear is.

    He's pretty tall. I'll say 200-225 now but he could be pushing two-fiddy by fall.

    I'm with BarnesX on this one. I know here in Minnesota that would be considered a decent bear. I wish I would've had one that big come by my stand last year.

    He's far bigger than 100-125.

    I'm with Barnes on this one. When there's that much daylight under his belly, he's not a huge bear, but he's not small, either.

    I am no bear expert but judging by how high on his head his ears sit and how long his legs are he is definitely not done growing. Still looks like a decent beat in the hi 190's low 200 range. I am betting if he makes it a few seasons he is going to be a biggun.

    I'd say he's sitting around the 200lbs mark for sure. Probably closer to 220lbs
