The feeder is hanging 8 feet off the ground, and the shooting houses that he broke into and turned over weigh 285 lbs. Any guesses as to how big he is???

Hard to tell from a pic but I'd say 300 if he can reach 8ft of. Are there 2 bears in that 2nd pic? looks like another higher up the hill

no it is just one bear I sat in the woods and watched him feed for about 30 minutes and it was just him but that pic is from about 150 yards tnen it got to dark and i put the camera down so i didnt take any more pics but I got up to about 50 yards of him. I showed my taxidermist and he said 250-275. I hope to have better pics of him my trail cam was right their behind him just havent got to check it yet.

now i've only hunted alaska black bear, but i am going to say around 6 ft roughly and probably 300lbs. maybe about 2 1/2 or 3 years old. the esasiest way is to size up next to a 55 gal drum. they are roughly 5 1/2 when their back covers the 3rd ring while on all 4's

The best thing to do would be to shoot now, ask questions later. I bet the scale can tell you better than all of us.
