Hey guys I am interested in doing a bear hunt for next year. I am not to sure of where I should be looking to go. I would like to stay in the states, but will go across the border if I have to. I havent been on a bear hunt before so this will be my first time. I am just looking for a good oppurtunity to get a bear, it doesnt have to be a monster, but dont want it to be a little one either, just a decent bear. I am just not sure of where and when to go. Any help you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated. I would like to try it with my bow, or do you guys think a gun would be better on the first hunt. I still get buck fever sometimes on the good ones, I cant imagine having a bear walk in I may shake myself out of the tree. thanks guys- coondog
