Big Bucks, Big Bulls, Big Bears...etc!!!

[adventure907]

With the popularity of the one photo a day thread, I thought it would be cool if we had something similar with photo's of "trophy class" animals that we all have taken or helped take. Everybody's definition of what constitutes a trophy is different, but if you have an animal that you are particularly proud of, post it up. While the other thread has focused mostly on "scenery shots", i figured this thread could focus on the animals we all love to hunt.

I'll lead off with a ten foot plus brown bear that I helped out on....

Don't be bashful fellas. If you've taken a nice or interesting animal, post it up.

Not real a real big Shiras but a trophy to me.

 

[Ray]

Critter in my avatar while still partially dressed. At this point he has just his spine, ribs, and head left as everything else is off an cached in higher ground, which flooded over night due to the monsoon. Has the most mass of any caribou I have handled so far. My dog can't stop sniffing his rear.

Crazy crab claws.

Thats awesome coloring on that Shiras Craig, i love how dark it is.

And Ray, that is one helluva heavy Caribou, one of the heaviest i have seen. Did ya happen to put a tape on it?

Here is a 10 1/2 foot, Boone and Crockett Brown bear that i guided for this spring. He was an ornery old fighter, scarred up and with a bit of a toothache.

No record breaker but by far my most rewarding hunt

I believe he is out at the cabin enjoying time with his beautiful wife and "unplugging" for a few days. I'm sure he will check in once he gets back and has some time. I saw him on FB having a blast "ice drifting" his 6x6 a few days ago, so odd seeing all the lakes frozen with no snow cover...


JWB300,, love the Red Stag,, on my bucket list and any Goat you get down with alive is a trophy in my book... congrats!!!!

I do miss catching Marlin and big Yellow Fins when I lived in Hawaii.
