Nice bear Issiah, congratulations! What ever way you decide to go on the mount, I'm sure It'll be nice. If you like liver and kept the one from your bear for the gall bladder, try it, you're in for a pleasant surprise. Good Stuff. Congrats again!

Who's got two thumbs and wants to be Issiah?  THIS GUY!!!

Man, I've never in my life seen anyone come close to the season you are having!  I feel bad for NYS's white tail doe population, considering you have one DMP yet to fill!

Truly AWESOME!!!

Thanx for the kind words guys,  It really means a lot to me  8) 8) 8)


Was shocked to find out today at the taxidermist that my bear may qualify for "The Book"  Combined Head Measurements for gun harvest need to be 18" on a dried skull,,  Measurements with the hide still on were 20"  it's gonna be close!   Sure would be cool!  Hopefully Dom's beetles are gentle and don't chisle away at any of the bone  ;D
