Same here in Wilkinson. We are off Balls Church Rd and have had every feeder ruined by bears this year.

I used to hunt off of balls church and blue Chip rd. Lots of bears in that area in the last few years.

Our lease is off 112. I first got bear pics in 2011. Search some of my posts and you can see all the pics.... I've heard Twiggs is over run with them, but they have a season. Hopefully DNR will add Wilkinson County to the season soon. My feeders have been empty since 2011....

Yep..Down the road from you in Twiggs below Jeffersonvile..4 to 5 different bears..and they destroyed every feeder there 2 weeks ago. Watch your camera they like those too! And a one day season doesnt help, they dont want you to kill them yet.

no way that bear is 175lbs-- He looks to be more in the 300 lb range. I killed a 320 hog this year and he looks bigger than the hog. Either way, I would not be walking to my stand without my 9mm on my side!!!!!!

Nice bear. They can wreak havoc on a feeder, but I would rather have them than pigs!

9MM really? That would be like a bee sting on a 300lb bear! You might wanna try something a little bigger!!!

My guess is that he is an adult and that he would go somewhere around 300 but again I'm not a bear expert. The bottom of that feeder barrel is at about 5 1/2 feet so he seems pretty tall to me.
I'm not concerned about any close encounters of the bear kind but I would prefer to not have my feeders and cameras destroyed. Hopefully he moves on down the road but I'm not sure why he would when he has a buffet at my place!
Here is another one of him patiently waiting in the buffet line!
