Field Judging Whitetails Every season numerous whitetail hunters set out to pursue that trophy of a lifetime. For some hunters, success comes easily.

520 Lb Manitoba Black Bear Pastor Duane Vanderklok from Rapid City, Michigan took this 520 pound black bear - just over 7 feet- skull measured over 21 inches. Luck was on his side no doubt!
There was a sow on the bait and he came chasing after her. Perfect shot -- the bear went about 20 yards.
This is the second Booner taken this past spring in Manitoba with Hastings Bros. Outfitters.
