Eye level Manitoba Bears, a new bow..TUSX Gear, and Instinct heads.

Wow!  What a brute!  Way to go Ryan!  How much did he weigh?

[Manitoba Stickflinger]

Thanks again everyone...

As far as age, I really didn't take much time to look at his teeth as light was fading fast and we were covered up in bears as we skinned. It was straight into the freezer from there so I'd be guessing only. Weight, I'd say 400-450 based on other bears I've moved and actually weighed.

That TUSX gear is so loaded up with options I joked about saying "go go gadget" before I did anything. (for those that remember Inspector Gadget) I should dub in "go go gadget high lung hit" into the video as I shoot.

Guess I better get busy with that vid.
