    Last night on my deer cam set-up. Fifteen feet from the camera. I think over 300#. Any guesses?

    Thats a young bear, small head and feet…well fed though. I agree with onestout…
    A bear this size is closer to 300lb…

    I’d say not more than 250. Nice bear for Mn.

    hi Chris,
    It does not look like a very big Bear;
    you’ve got a year to get great with a bow;
    I’d still NOT want to wound it and go look for it.
    Hope all is well

    I think you could take him, no question in my mind

    Would you like me to mix you a cocktail first, though?

    No matter the size he sure is a camera hog. I`d swear he new where exactly the camera was, and what was happening.
