This is the Grizzly Bear I took this year in Alaska. Skull measured 25 7/16 official. The bear was 9'6" sq. I am building the base for it in a week or so.

Nice bear!

FYI, I took the liberty of editing your post to get the picture to display...hope you don't mind.

Cheers,

very nice bear and mount.

Congradulations! Great Bear!!

Wow! They DO grow to impressive sizes, don't they...

Very nice. Looks like quality taxidermy work too.

Thanks, the taxidermy cost a pretty penny, but it is well worth it . The picture doesn't do it justice at all.

dam thats a nice bear...i am jealous...great mounting...the only problem is it makes your big screen t.v. look small now

Awesome Bear! I took a black bear in Arkansas last year, but I can't imagine coming face to face with a bruser like that.

What did you take him with? Can you provide some details about the hunt. If you've already posted this can you point me to the post? I did a search but couldn't find it.

Thanks

AWESOME BEAR... How about a story to go with the picture.

COOL BEAR MOUNT! Way to go Lightning!

Man that's impressive. Especially when you realize the top of the bears head is above the top of the door casing!

Hey Lightning, Congratulations on the Bear. Any "details" about the actual Hunt to toss in the thread would be nice. If you told the story of the hunt before, give me a link.

Wow What a rear ! so what did you kill it with ?

Very nice!
