That's a huge bear. Curious what the skull measured. Here in Sask a big bear will weigh close to 500 and a half dozen will measure between 21 and 22 every year with maybe one 22+ every couple years.
These kinds of discussions are always interesting. I'd say 50% don't care what they kill as long as it has antlers. 40% will hold out for the big rack (for most it's anything over 140) regardless of age. 8% want age with a big rack. And 2% are focused solely on age. Of course no data to back...
Ya, if it's a circulation problem you're going to have to use a heat source. If you're in a box blind use a buddy heater, just don't melt the soles of your boots. If you're in a snowbank, you're going to want heated socks or insoles.
Finally got out on the ice for the early winter Brown Trout bite. There are numerous hard to get to stocked lakes up here in Sask so most times you're the only angler on the lake.
Heading home.
Love the story. Those unknown bucks add a level of excitement to the hunt for sure (the buck in my avatar pic was a stranger to me). Congrats on a really nice deer!!
