This bear showed up a couple days ago.  He came at midnight so it may be tough to hunt him.  Also, it's difficult to judge the size.  I'm thinking around 135 pounds? Any ideas?  I have an IR camera but it sure looks like he knows something is wrong.  Shouldn't IR cameras be "invisible" to wildlife? At least that's what they advertise.

Really hard to judge the size of a bear in a picture like that isn't it Deadeye.  Almost wish I guy could hide a scale on the ground to get a weight!

This guy showed up on my mineral plot.  This is my deer bow site.  I do have a WI bear kill tag this year but not for this zone.  Kinda bummed about that.

This guy looks huge!

He might have heard the camera click. 

Ears don't look small.  You are probable pretty close on weight.

Any deer pics on the new cam?
Anything that is free is worth saving up for.

Both Bears look bigger to me at least 250lbs to 300lbs. I look at the head or skull you can see both have a big head. An average deer doe can weigh 130lbs those two are both good big bears.

This bear at my feeder Im guessing is 400lbs or bigger showed pics to Bear hunters and they say closer to 600lbs. You do have two nice bears tho
