Alaska bear hunt
« on: September 06, 2025, 06:55:44 PM »
This year I got the opportunity of my life. My cousin who owns a guide service in Alaska called me. He said he had a client cancel on really short notice. He said if I could get up there he would take me on a bear hunt. I told him I was on my way. It was a great hunt and adventure.

Congrats. Looks like a blast and on every hunters list of dream hunts. Really hoping to move to Alaska at some point, even if it was just for 4 or 5 years. Probably the only way I will get to do a hunt like that with the cost/requirement of a guide for non residents. We saw a beaut on our DIY moose hunt up there last year that would have been nice to be able to shoot. Are you doing a rug or something different? I have a full body black bear mount in my house that takes up quite a bit of space, I cant imagine the room that Bear would take up as a life-size mount

I will be getting a rug done. It’s going to take up a lot room up for sure.

Unreal for that to come together so quickly. 

Great looking bear!
