You are correct. You are going for the live weight-- the weight of the animal prior to being field dressed. Like Tod said, most people normally don't carry or have access to scales in the woods, so the bears are field dressed, weighed at a check-in station, and the officials add back a certain percentage of weight to account for the guts. That number, with guts in, is the weight you want.

It's interesting seeing the bonuses change hands this late in the comp. One minute someone thinks their high scoring bear is solid, the next minute they have not only lost to a higher scoring bear but are left with no realistic chance at the comp either. Ya better pay attention today, bonus seekers! :lol:

I didn't had too much time to make better hunts, but maybe my submitted bear can be the nearest to the real weight... a man can dream xD

Oh, you know what- I think we have to wait another 90 min in case someone just closed a hunt with a bunch of bears- they still have time to submit them.

Oh NO! It's POSTED! I freaking nailed the range I wanted to be in :D :D :D

Congrats to the winners! And those that managed to keep their bonus prizes... Thank you xOEDrangonx and UHC staff and J_Birdman for the bonuses he provided. Was a fun comp, I was quite surprised to see the variety of fur variations that hit the LB! Again, great comp and thanks for hosting it xOEDrangonx- can't wait to see what your rl bear weighed. 8-) Peace.
