PA - World Record Bear
Haven't seen this posted yet. I hear that, once this becomes official, this will be the world record black bear shot by a hunter. There is one bear that is 1/16" bigger that was found dead in Utah.

I've seen plenty of articles on it but surprised that there is nothing on Boone & Crockett's Trophy Watch.
I'm not surprised it came from PA. Every year there are several 700+ pound bears and one over 800lbs pops up every now and then.
What are the legal means of hunting bear in NC? We are not allowed to use bait or hounds. Our main bear season is 3 days at the end of November. Makes for a very low success rate and a lot of OLD bears.

Guys who drive with lots of guys generally do well. We ner have more than a few guys so we don't do so well. We just sit and watch. I've seen two bears and got one so far. Plus, our season is in late November so early winters make it tough as well.
We just pulled 3 trail camers and had 5 different bears. All day time shots.
