Alaska Brown Bear Hunt |
|||||||||||||||||||
| Your guided Alaska brown bear hunt will take place southwest of Anchorage in the world-famous Alaska Peninsula (GMU 9), an area that produces some of the largest coastal brown bears in the world. The brown bear and grizzly bear are genetically the same species. However, the coastal brown bear has a greater amount of protein in its diet from feeding on Alaska's abundant salmon runs and grows larger than a grizzly. All of our guided Alaska brown bear hunting trips are fair chase and we have an excellent success rate because of the high concentration of bears in our guiding area. The bears we take average between 9’ and 10’ and we see lots of other bears that we pass up. You are not expected to take the first bear you see, so take the time to look for a trophy to be proud of. The spike camp we will be hunting out of is equipped with everything you will need during your 10 day hunt and you will be camping in water resistant, professional quality tents. You can find a list of items you are responsible for bringing on the Hunter’s Gear List and we will take care of the rest. The Alaska Peninsula can have sunny 70 degree weather, but not when we are hunting bears. Be prepared for wet, raining sideways, 40 degree temperatures, anything better are bonus days. When we are bear hunting in the Spring, we have the advantage of long days and we can hunt from 7 am until midnight if its not cloudy. Fall brown bear hunts have about 12 hours of daylight for hunting. Walking could be up to one mile a day from spike camp to the place we will glass for bears. When a bear is spotted, a stalk of a few miles in hip boots is to be expected. Alaska bear hunts are “usually” one of the least physically demanding hunts, but if we spot a Boone & Crockett animal on the other side of a two-mile-across swamp, you will be glad you prepared yourself physically for the trophy bear hunt of a lifetime. |
To stop a bear it’s not “how big of a rifle can you shoot?” but how well can you place the bullet in the right spot when your heart is pounding from hiking, the adrenaline is flowing, and you have to shoot standing up because there is alder brush between you and the bear. A .300 Magnum caliber or larger loaded with a quality bonded bullet will stop any bear if you put it through both lungs. Your elephant gun that just gathers dust every year won’t stop the bear if you can only hit him in the leg because you flinch from the recoil. If the ammo is too expensive to practice with, you probably can’t afford this hunt. There is no excuse for not practicing.
