Black Bear Hunt Question
I am thinking about surprising my 14 year old little brother with a black bear hunt next year. He is on fall break in November. Does anyone have any outfitter recommendations?

November is late for bear.

Where do you want to hunt bear at? I'd look for a Spring or Summer bear hunt. I don't have any guide suggestions but I could sure find some quick from a friend of mine who hunts bear on a regular basis. He took me on my first and only bear hunt so far.

'Fall' bear hunts often start in August but most are long done before November. I have outfits that offer 'spring' hunts through the end of June which may work better for your brother.

I think some eastern states have hunts that run into NOV. Chek out WV, they have big bears there.

If the 270 won't do it the .338 will, if the 338 won't I can't afford the hunt!

Thanks for the responses. As you can tell by the question I know next to nothing about bear hunting, but Ann is helping me find a spring trip that will work for my brother and I.

Does anyone have any suggestions on a good bear hunting book?
