Description

Arizona’s black bears are secretive by nature and inhabit some of the most rugged, remote, and beautiful country in the state. No other state offers more color phase bears per-capita than Arizona and long OTC bear seasons make the Grand Canyon State one of the top bear hunting destinations out west! We offer clients two types of guided black bear hunts in Arizona and our experienced guides kill record book bears using each tactic. In fact, our success rate on BIG color-phase bears is unmatched anywhere in North America. Hunters can choose between a spot-and-stalk style hunt or a traditional hunt behind trained hounds. During a guided spot and stalk style bear hunt, clients can expect long glassing sessions for monster bruins before navigating through the rugged landscape to get in position for a shot. Or Clients can choose a guided bear hunt behind trained hounds. You’ll follow Arizona’s most tenacious pack of bear hounds into remote canyons in search of your trophy. Depending on the hunt location and your desired experience, we might hunt on foot, with a side-by-side, or off of mules–your choice! Whether you choose to hunt bears behind hounds, or prefer glassing for bears, your hunting experience will be second to none. It’s always such a rush of adrenaline when someone abruptly says “got a bear” while they’re glassing, and you know it could be “go time” very soon! Sometimes bears will be glassed up within rifle range of your first position, but usually we must get closer to the bear for a good shot. A flat-shooting rifle and confidence behind it come in quite handy. We like 7mm, 7PRC, 300WSM, 300 WIN, 300 PRC and other similar calibers for big boars in big Arizona bear country.
