ol boone and crockett would stare them 'bars to death or use their knives.

You got that right Muley!

Bears were taken from 54 counties this season and the top 10 reported weighed 618 lbs. or more. There were two bears that tied for 1st with a weight of 713 each!!

those are modern day welfare bears though.

Bears get food stamps?

Dang straight. There are plenty of blackies here in PA that are real whoppers. I think they killed one this year close to 800 lb.!

You're right MD...

I believe they said the two heaviest bears came from Philadelphia county!!... KIDDING!... LOL!

BPS

All joking aside...Pennsylvania has a reputation for producing some of the largest black bears killed in the nation every year!

Hey fellas...

I think we're all getting WAY off topic here and it's no big deal but if most of us have settled into this forum, (and it appears we have)... let's stop posting general mish mash on this thread and move on to other topics already presented or bring up something new to discuss. Just my $.02

Part of being on forums is just shooting the bull. Just like sitting around the campfire in hunting camp.

Don't expect it to always be on topic. It's not brain surgery. It's muzzleloaders. That should be fun. My $.03.
