Member ks2's boy got his first black bear. 'Bout a 5 1/2 footer. Hopefully we'll get video up soon. One shot, he was very excited and I was glad I could see it all go down! As you can see in the first picture, there were a few bugs around, so when this guy came in after about 10 minutes, we were glad to see he was a shooter!

Black Bear and Wolf hunt with Baranof Expeditions.

Shot this Black Bear hunting with a few buddies of mine near Seward! The hide was absolutely perfect and measured 74", and his skull measured 17 9/16". Had a blast doing it, and wish I was going to be around next year to do it again.

We were headed home when the woman yelled "bear!"; he was poking his snoot out of the trees so I snuck up to about 30 yards and got him through both shoulders. He never knew what hit him; ran about 10 feet and expired in less than a minute. Four hours later he was skinned, quartered, hung, and I was in bed.

I ran my first bait stand this year and we ended up taking two nice Black Bears. My brother shot a 5'6" boar with his bow which was his first bear. Two days later I took out a 13 yr old boy and he shot about a 6' 4" Boar with a rifle also his first bear. I had a Sow Brown bear and two cubs pretty much take over the bait toward the end of the season. Not cool... We had a good time and I learned a ton for next years Spring hunt. Its my turn with a bow next year.....

Sheepshape365 and I teamed up on the DCUA walk in hunt to bring out this fella. Shot opening morning at 9am. Right side broomed, left side 37”. Single Shot at 165 yards with a Kimber Montana 7mm WSM. The walk out took two full days.

Jim Swindler guided with Deltana Outfitters. First location we had 85 degrees, bugs, and almost no game so they moved us near some ice where we got these guys just before the snowstorm...
First hunt for both kids. |

So went up on the Steese for my first bou hunt. The weather on Sunday went from windy, cold and fog/clouds to blue skies and semi warm out. Bou moving about and spirits were high. Up Monday morning to fog and rain and more wheelers then bou. Finaly spoted a herd for ourselves and after a little bit of a stalk I killed this bull.
Not the biggest but the first dosn't need to be. Had a great time with great friends and loved the area. What a great state with vistas like that....mike |

Taken 8/11/09. We got snowed on the first day (the sheep hunters above us were miserable), but then 4 straight days of hot weather. Great Trip.

Just a little guy, but that made him easier to pack out. Solo 1-day hunt, found him at 3,700' with two cows and two calves. Two hour stalk, as there was virtually nothing to hide behind. Just over 12 hours round-trip from my truck.

He's estimated to be 11-12- years old and 39 7/8 to 41 5/8 (depending on measurements) had several people measure and got different numbers. We'll see what F&G says...
