Biggest animal ever shot?

RE: Biggest animal ever shot?
Nice bear. Where at in Minnesota are you hunting? Or if you dont want to give away your spot...which area number are you hunting in.
My dad and his dad along with other people and there dad's go up to minnesota every year bear hunting. They have gotten a total of 4 bears in i think 5 or 6 years.
My dad's friend got his first bear (Im embarresed to say the weight. It was a bit small, but it was with a bow and that is still a great acheivement. Ill just show you the picture.)
And then his dad got his bear which was about 175-200 pounds.
My dad got his first bear last year, it was about 275-300
My granda got done hunting and got back to camp and got a beverage. He said he looked up and all he saw was this big black animal. He went into the tent got his gone, ran back out and he saw the bear stand up and he shot right in the middle of his chest. It was getting pretty dark and was hard to see. He heard the bear roar real loud and it took off. He went over and saw blood but there wasn't a lot so they were going to wait till the next day. Guess what, it rained! And rained really hard. They lost the blood trail completely and could never find it.
Our banker got his first bear also and it weighed 500+ pounds. not officially weighed though because the scale only went to 500 lol.
these are all minnesota bears.
Im going down to Arkansas the wednesday before thanksgiving for some bear hunting also.
My dad' bear and his friends bear. My dad is on the left. Sorry they never thought of taking pictures when it was still full size.
This is my bankers bear.
I have never got a bear yet but I have got a bear-like animal.
My biggest one is on the very right. It weighed about 25 pounds
This is my grandpa's biggest deer. Scored 172" 15 pointers.
This is my dad's biggest buck.
This is my biggest catfish (at our pond) weighed 3 pounds and was 19 1/2 inches long.

Those are some great black bears! I think I've hunted trophy black bear for 5 years and this is all I have to show for it: One medium size brownie.
Some other big critters:
300# wild boar
#2 SCI Archery reindeer
But the biggest was definitely this moose (one of these days I'll get the field photo scanned)[&:]

one on the right. It was like a 75-100 pound bear. I shouldn't say I am embarressed to say it. Its still a great trophy for being his first bear with a bow.
