OK, I' ll bite. :D The first one has seen waaayyyyy too many jelly doughnuts, and I' d put him at around 425, maybe better. Number 2 (based on only the ' south bound' photo) should go 300 and Boo-Boo looks around 200#.

All guess' s subject to change with more pictures... ;)

Looks like CT was the closest overall.

Pic #1 600 pound male
Pic #2 475 pound male
Pic #3 275 pound male

They were all weighed with the last month, so the weights should be pretty close yet.

Wow I must be a partial genius...LOL. Figured that first one was really big with that belly hanging to the ground, definitely a Dunkin donut regular. Second one was a nice shooter, probably a fat free Dunkin donut muffin eater, third was on a diet, probably eating Subway sandwiches. Those were some nice bears. Only reason I could guess was the 3 times I hunted in Saskatuan(?). Guide made us watch videos to judge bear size, and I saw some big boys!!!!! Got 2 of them on my wall. Third time I passed up one like the second one because I saw one almost as big as the first one above. But as it usually goes I never got a shot. Really spoils ya. Great job with the pics.

Chad we need to get you up there to hunt some of those big boys during the bear rut. Really an adrenelin rush!!!!!!!!!

I' ll be going to Maine at the end of August for my first Trad bear hunt. My other hunts I used a compound. Probably won' t see any real big ones, but don' t really care. This will be my first Trad hunt so any bear will be a trophy.
