I got my bear head back from the European skull specialist.
(Aka Dad). This was the bear that I took with Jerry Russell in Quebec. I have let it dry the appropriate time and bummed a big set of calipers. Today was cold and rainy and with the local turkey population playing hard to get I measured him. The unofficial score measured over Pope and Young minimum. So needless to say it put icing on the cake from a great hunt and for a first bear.

Looks great!
Also tell your Dad you love him and he did a great job!

Congrats on your bear!

I have two. Can I send them to You? (Kidding)
Very nice job.
He did an outstanding job! Should have brought my bear to him!
Man that looks great. I felt sure he would go P&Y. That bear had one of the most beautiful hides I have ever seen. The bait you shot him at always has a couple monsters on it each year. In fact, two of the four bears we tracked that morning made P&Y.
Congratulations!
Nice!!
Good job sir!
Great bear! Any chance you pulled a tooth and sent it sonewhere for aging? I find that stuff fascinating
I love skulls! Very nice!
Congrats. Very nice bear.
That looks great. A bear hunt with Jerry is in my future. Saving my money now and should have it all saved up in a couple of years.
Congrats!

Jerry pulled a tooth and left it with the proper authority in Quebec. As for results on it I probably never will know.

Jerry runs a top notch camp. You wouldn't be disappointed.
Impressive
