Just got my bear back from the taxidermist..

[Kramerica]

Got the bear a few years ago, taxidermist was so backed up I just got it back today. A few other things he did for me as well over the years.

Very nice. You have some cool animals to look at in unusual places.

I have to be creative and get them up in the air. I have a little one that likes to get into everything constantly.

Sorry that transgressions won’t happen again lol. The bobcat was with a rifle though... mink was with a trap. I guess I need to join a couple different forums.

On the ground too, that part was an accident though. Had that bear patterned out for two weeks before the season opened, it’d come into a corn field at 11am everyday using the same trail. Opening day rolls in, I walk in the woods at 830am to setup on the trail and it’s already there on the trail ahead of me. I saw the bear before it saw me, I crouched down crawled behind a bush. When I poked my head up to see, it caught a glimpse of me. It started to Slowly circle downwind of me, keeping an eye on me as he went. Luckily he put his head down and stopped where the brush wasn’t so thick. I guessed it was about 40 yards (didn’t have time to range it) drew back, stood up over the bush and let it fly. Doubled lunged it. He ran off about 30 yards and Piled up. It was pretty intense being on his level that close. And pretty lucky to be honest a lot of variables fell in my favor that day.

Rifle, bow, handgun. It is all shooting, I for one like any photo's of animals and set ups. Thanks for sharing.

I love it! If I get a decent sized one I might get it mounted also. I just got a fall bear tag and have been scouting some spots before the season starts! Congrats man!

It’s not cheap but it’s worth it in the long run. Good luck to you!
