Great videos on Alaska hunting!
I'll be checking that out in a few minutes, thanks mega!
He has made me want a BIG bear really bad!
I started with season 5, 2011 season. Best quote ever…"there's three nice bulls down there. One is really good. Not near good enough at 9 1/2 miles from camp"

There is one video where a young girl wounds a grizzly and they have to go in the brush for it. It charges within feet and they fill it full of lead.
I have never been in a situation like that. I would just hope that I did not freeze with fear. I have had deer run by me that I never got a shot because trying to get the perfect kill shot or they were just too dang fast.

What he doesn't tell you is a bear hunt or moose hunt with him is in the $30,000 to 35,000 range!!!!!
I love his videos, I've watched every one of them

The biggest brown bear we seen on Kodiak supposedly was a $20k bear.
I'd move to AK and set up residency before I paid $20-30k to hunt one.
thx megalomaniac. I started watching this guys stuff and can't stop. The bear hunt with that young girl and her father was awesome.

And you can get an oil dividend check each year .... 2023 was $1300 and 2024 is expected to be around $3000.

That $3k would cover a huge part of chartering a boat for a week. Just imagine hunting brown bear, Sitka blacktail and mountain goat for less than $5k and having a warm place to sleep every night and hot breakfast before you head out.And you can get an oil dividend check each year .... 2023 was $1300 and 2024 is expected to be around $3000.

It would probably not be too difficult for a remote, or a retired worker, to actually find a one room lease somewhere cheap to establish residency in the state.

this is just me, but i have no desire to hunt bears of any variety. see blackies pretty regularly, only one of any real size was an ear-tagged problem bear relocated out of Gatlinvegas. it showed zero awareness of us as we pulled up next to it along the road at Paint Creek. the rest all looked like oddball black Labs running through the woods. i've got friends that love to hunt them, and go up to Canada every year. they enjoy it, and that's what is important.
