congrats BOWHUNTERCOP, what zone do you hunt in? If i remember right it is zone 2 right?My buddy shot a 420 lb male this morning.It was 10 till 9 and he was just about to get out of the stand when this big guy appeared.Another 5 minutes and this bear would have been in the clear. The guy checking in the bear said my buddies black bear will definatly make boone and crocket based on the size of the head. he gave my friend some info to have it scored. I was really happy for him he can't wipe the grin from his face.

How many shots?? Where did you hit it??

RE: GOT MYSELF A NJ BEAR!!!!
 

Way to go!! After all those years of being bothered during archery and to finally connect on a bear.

Do you have a butcher yet? Are you going to mount any part of the bear? Let me know if you need some referrals.

My buddy's friend took a nice bear on Monday up in Mahwah, NJ. Weighed 288lb.

Congrats again.

Bob

AS FAR BUTCHERING IT, I'M DOIN IT MYSELF. TAKEN IT TO MY FRIEND GEORGE, HE'S GOING TO SKIN IT OUT THIS AFTERNOON, AND HE'S DOIN A FULL BODY MOUNT. REASONS FOR A FULL BODY MOUNT IS THAT THIS IS A NJ BEAR, WHO KNOWS IF THEY WILL HAVE ANOTHER SEASON, AND IF THEY DO I MAY NEVER GET ANOTHER, ALSO I HAVE TAKEN 2 OTHER BEARS WITH ARCHERY IN CANADA ONE IS A RUG, ANOTHER IS 3/4 MOUNT. TOOK 1 LIGHTFIELD SLUG AT 50yds.
