--- Quote from: huntallyearlong on October 28, 2025, 08:36:02 PM ---I won the auction tags from the Genesisis Project that Bearpaw had donated. It was a DIY hunt for the same area. Bearpaw gave me about 20 waypoints with detailed information for each location. We only hunted 2 of the locations because we were into elk. We showed up at camp at 1:00 a.m. woke up early the next morning and hunted right out of camp. 3 hours later I had a bull at 20 yards. It was the first time hunting with my wife and we had a blast. We hunted 5 days and were into elk 4 out of the 5 days. One day we had multiple bulls in an area and a heard bull that just wouldn't come out of the thick stuff. My wife had an arrow on the rest for over a hour while the bulls were screaming. We hunted the morning hard and had lots of action. We saw a handful of bucks and lots of does. Going into the hunt I felt that an outfitter wouldn't give a DIY guy any good areas because they would save it for the guided guys. I was way wrong , Thanks Dale!! All in all I would highly recommend Bearpaw outfitters. As a true hunter I think your right ( no animals around here go away ) --- End quote --- I'm super happy to hear you had a great hunt after buying the tags to support the Gensis Projeect! That's fantastic. |

I have “one” advertising outfitter/sponsor over on my meager elk hunting forum by design… Bear Paw. I’ve honestly been through more outfitters than you can imagine but the only one that consistently gets positive reviews is well, that one. Sorry it didn’t work out for you this year but as others have mentioned, it’s hunting and there are no iron clad success guarantees for each endeavor. |

Genesis Project helps women and girls out of prostitution and sex trafficking. Dale/Bearpaw Outfitters donated 2 pairs of DIY Outfitter hunts to Genesis Project this year, for which I am EXTREMELY grateful. (He also greenlighted several other auctions to be run on his website for the benefit of the Genesis Project) https://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,292791.0.html |
