My Avatar is a photo of what will be my best trophy. A Red Stag from NZ 11-13 454 7/8. My name I have used since I was in WY. We shot NFAA there and my group was Bow Hunter Free Style. In a target shoot a top score was 300. I shot several tie breaker was X count. Best was 60 my best was 52. That was twenty years ago and I haven’t shot targets since I moved to Colorado.

My name is my name, when I signed up I never thought to put in my nickname, "Colonel".
My avitar is my 416 Taylor rifle, which is by far my favourite rifle to shoot. Took a 350lbs black bear with it last Thursday here in Ontario.

Pic's or it didn't happen!

Nkawu is the Zulu word for Vervet Monkey which are incredibly numerous around my home.

Didn’t take a lot of pictures, 32 degrees (90f). Priority was getting it out of the bush, cleaned and put in the freezer.

It still surprised me that people eat Bear. Not something I ever considered and something I onlearned about in the last couple of years.
I can see why they take furs for rugs. I would like a bear skin rug.

Off topice for the thread:
My wife’s Pennsylvania LOVE bear meat. I have yet to try it, but maybe one day.
Some people render the fat from bears feeding heavily on berries because of the flavor profile (blueberry lard of sorts).

Top notch table fare! Took a 450lb boar a few years ago in Ontario. Squared 7' 4". They estimated him to be about 8 years old. Ham steaks so tender they could be cut with a fork. Had to handle the backstraps carefully as they were trying to pull apart as they were cut into steaks. The flavor and texture are similar to bighorn sheep.
Looking forward to another Canadian hunt before too long.
