Big AK Brown Bear
Here is another email I thought I would share with everyone. Could be just this lodge trying to advertise, but its still shows some great pics.
This is the largest bear I have ever guided for. The skull measured 29". He was super old and was probably not going to make it through another winter. Hope you all like the pics and have a great day.

Rocky I'd love to shoot a bear like that, but I sure wouldn't want to have to pay for the taxidermy for it. Would be wanting to find someone who charged by the bear, and not by the foot. That's the biggest bear pictures I have seen of a whole bear.

Forget the taxidermy, I wish I could talk the wife into letting me spend that kind of money on a hunt.
