Here is a guy named Bill Pennell, half of the world famous Pinnell and Talifson hunting guides from Kodiak Island from 1939 thru 1986. The scoring of Brown Bears skulls started in 1963, they still hold more they have of the world records from 1963. God only know what was taken prior to that. Here Bill Pinnell in 1965 showing a hunters skull that was mauled by a Brown Bear in the prior fall and not found till a session and a half later. It is unknown if the bear was wounded and got the hunter or the hunter was only deer hunting and was mauled, but got shot off at the bear in self defence. Both skulls where found less the 25 yards apart. The hunter us still unknown till this day. Most likely a Kodiak Island Russian villager, many where in theses days only known to the villagers. Many did not even know there own birth dates....the book, "Last of the Great Brown Bear Men" is about Pinnell and Talifson. NOTE the Savage lever 99, most likly in 250 Savage. Popular in that time....enjoy...Scott
