Thats a heck of a bear! What county did you see him in? Alot of big ones were killed throughout the state this year.

Thanks for the reply. I was unaware that some hunters have to draw an anterless tag for shooting does. In MD we have a surplus of does and the limits are set that you could really shoot as many as you want. I tend to shoot does exclusivley unless my deer hunting property owner asks us to shoot a buck that won't amount to anything in terms of trophy size. Of course if I see a monster buck that I would actually mount I would shoot him. It's not often I see one of them.
