I know exactly what you're saying my friend had a bobcat mounted, and I don't know if it looks cartoonish or drunk, but does not look lifelike.

I had a 46 pound tom bobcat mounted for my wife. It looked so screwed up in the face we stood it in the corner. It looked like generations of inbreeding. It became a $1500.00 target.

Every time I see the title of this thread, i keep thinking it says 22' bear--- not '22 bear--- and i think, man that sucker is bigger than my truck!!!

Awesome bear Oregon has a great bear population as we can't bait so it's a hunt and the coast has some big one's but the eastern side not so much but I love bear hunting as much as elk saw 2 this year but too small.

My 2022 bow Black Bear

Got this beautiful boar on the ground during the second week of bow season and I could not be more excited. He squared at 6' 7" (81"x77"), and 19 8/16" on green skull size. Not sure on the weight as we only had a 300lb hanging scale. Field dressed, he pegged the scale out way past 300lb before...

Got my black bear from '22 back and I am extremely pleased with the outcome. Thought I'd share some photos:
