Yeah, I think you're right about that "you'll know when you see it" rule.
Somebody should make a good video on judging brown bears. The local F&G office has such a video, but it's filmed in Canada someplace using grizzlies. You can learn a few general rules from that film, but is has almost no relevance to brown bears. The biggest bear in that film would be considered a sub-adult if you saw it up here.
There's way too many sows and young bears taken just because people can't judge bears.
