Thanks Vic - yes we are and still debating what type of mount. Most likely it will be a wall mount like Psyop has.

That's a real nice looking bruin, Colonel. Looks like someone else got one, too, off to the right in the pic.

I was canoeing on the Allagash a couple decades ago during bear season, right before the start of moose season, IIRC. Got a ride back to from St. John our put-in (and cars) by a guy with one prosthetic leg (lost it in a driving through the woods accident ) and we picked up a guy who had been bear hunting....had a cast iron frying pan the size of a small UFO. It was like 24" in diameter or something. Didn't see any bears on the trip, but did see quite a few moose. A few years after that, an archer friend of mine and his wife took a Pope & Young moose at over a 1000 lbs. Said they both hit it at the same time and it dropped in only about 60 yards.....with broadheads.

Thank you! For basically a knife forum, we do seem to see a lot of food here. Bacon especially.
