Great Days in Canada, 06-2014
Hi friends,

im back from Canada, Newfoundland, since yesterday.

I had an great hunt there!!
:-)

Outfitter:
Victoria Outfitters

Chief Guide:
Dave Eavens

Guns:
Heym SR 30 in 9,3 x 62 und 8,5 x 63 R

Animals hunted:
Black bear

Animals seen:
Black bear, Elk, Caribu, Marder

Newfoundland is an great place to stay and our guide Dave is an great man. You can hunt there by boat, stalk, walk or from an machan. You can hunt "allone" or "with an guide", as you want.

I allways prefare to hunt allone, at home, in Africa or now in Canada. I had so more the feeling of an adventure.

The weather was fantastic, so mutch green, green everywhere...

I was there with two friends, all of us get an nice black bear.

The price was all together (without the tickets for the plan) nearly 2.500 Euro

Amazing:
You can eat the black bear "completly" and it taste great.

Photos:
Later on I post some photos.

The Heym SR 30, straight bolt, was the perfect weapon for this kind of hunt.

Nice report Bockhunter. I've hunted Newfoundland several times for moose & caribou, but not yet for bear. I'm glad you enjoyed your hunt....it's a great place.
