Went to get my trail cam that I had put out back in march and was surprised at the size of this bear. If you look on the tree just above his ear there is a dead spot. When I stood upright with my arm stretched as high as possible I just could touch that spot. I can touch 7 ft 2 inch flat footed.

Nice! I'm glad YOU hunt there instead of me. :D
Big ol bear for sure. Great pic, thanks for posting it.
Yowsa!! He is a dandy.. :you_rock:
I guess that bears do rub in the woods. ;D
He is a dandy. I would love to see him at 15 yards with bow and tag in hand. They are the hardest animal in the woods to size, but that is a shooter.

I second that, but I would prefer 10 yards!

Im guessing here but I would he has a white V patch. I've gotten a few other pics of bears in this area that had a white V on their chest.
Heres a pic of 1 with the white V.
