Spring Grizzly Bear Hunts LAST PRICE UPDATE!!!

FourtyonesixSpring Grizzly Bear Hunts LAST PRICE UPDATE!!!
I have a time slot in my schedule open for a spring grizzly bear hunt in interior alaska.
Guided by me.
April 15-23 are the hunt dates.
Cost is normally $12,000, LAST OFFER IS $8000.00
Stay in a remote lodge, with internet, hot and cold water, showers, cook, a view that won't quit and your own snowmachine for transportation during the hunt. Took a nice bear on this hunt last year on day 5 right at his den.
Travel the mountians looking for fresh bear sign and/or dens.
There is a $1000 security deposit on the snowmachine, you will get all of it back if you don't break anything, save for a $150 dealer inspection fee to have the machine checked out after you use it.
Wolves are in the area and you don't need a tag to hunt them if we cut fresh sign!

Fourtyonesix8.5 foot boar, taken at 270 yards with a .416 rem mag, one shot. spotted him the day before and couldn't get on him, managed to pull it off the next day. saw one other set of tracks that was in the mid nine foot range bear.

cmfic1Jake, I have an older friend who might be interested, I can pass on the info to him.
What would you rate the physical aspect of this hunt at (1-10)? The pics are kinda decieving. I understand the style of hunt (high up searching for un-denning bears), but I have seen some areas where bears are denning higher in elevations.....the phisicality of it will be his biggest concern (he's older & has bad knees).
Also (out of interest) I see your gun in the den......what are you packing there? kinda looks like a lever action.

Fourtyonesixthe gun is a colt 1911, 10mm.
this might be a tougher hunt if your not in good shape. i've got some oct bear hunts on salmon streams that would be much more up his alley!

cmfic1Thanks, I wont even tell him then....not being able to do hunts like this is grieving him pretty bad.

For CRYING ALOUD
I have booked up all this year what a great hunt.
One of these days we will get together. My buddy from Portage Creek said you are the best one on one guide hunter in Alaska.
I am assuming thats this spring this offer.
Maybe next spring if I know earlier have booked 2 hunts for next spring but maybe fit one like this in between Cougar and Stag.
Good luck on this hunt (as if you need luck)

Take a payment plan?
Spent way to much on hunts (my wifes thinks).
I can cook.
Boy this is very tempting
Larry
03 March 2011, 22:55
Fourtyonesixi'll take a payment plan as long as it involved me being paid in full by the time the hunt starts.
i can cook too.

04 March 2011, 02:11
elk88101Jake
Yeah just not enough time on the payment plan.
Maybe next year I guess.
Have a great hunt
I will be in Anchorage some time in late August going for moose up from Dillingham about 100 miles.
Have a great bear hunt

Fourtyonesixmore snickers than you can eat john..come on out and see!! not like we're gonna top you first bear though...

FourtyonesixOk guys the price has dropped since we are getting closer and closer to the hunt dates! this is the point on the posting where some guys decide to wait and see if they can get a better deal and where one guy decides to take it and go on a great adventure.
Then i end up posting pics later and everyone who didn't take it goes.."ahh man i shoulda done it, but was trying to hold out for a couple hundred more bucks off!!"
Ain't gonna lie, its much cheaper to not go. If if you don't go, you can't complain about not ever getting a bear.
thanks to all the guys who have checked flights budgets and with wives to see if they could do this trip so far.
07 March 2011, 03:06
Fourtyonesixnot even a offer?
07 March 2011, 06:48
elk88101Jake
I would make you and offer but I would not want to post it here I dont want to be laught at.
Maybe if you get down to the last 3 weeks or so and nobody takes it I will PM you what I have left in the hunting Kitty.

Biebs Calls Me a Cheap S.O.B.
07 March 2011, 09:32
Fourtyonesixmight as well low ball me and see what happens....i do enjoy a good laugh on occasion...or i might be in a good mood and feel sorry for ya!

07 March 2011, 09:54
elk88101Jake
You start out from Anchorage correct?
Then you go up to a snowmobile trail head somewhere and take machines back to the cabin?
Then ride the machines all day to cut tracks and glass hill sides for bears or dens that opened up.
Jake
I hope you can feel sorry for me nobody else will.

I need to check some scheduling on a few projects tomorrow and then I will make the low ball offer, if I can get free during that time slot.

Larry
07 March 2011, 11:18
Fourtyonesixya your right on your idea of the hunt, but its a lodge not a cabin...
if you can swing an offer let me know..if its real funny, i'll copy and paste it to the forums!
07 March 2011, 17:05

08 March 2011, 06:08
mcvsbtMan, Somebody needs to jump all over this...I'm working on a project through the end of May or i would have booked this the minute it was offered. Jake puts on great hunt!!!
08 March 2011, 06:15
Fourtyonesixok guys, running out of time, wife and i talked and we need to sell this. This last price is my final offer unless someone comes up with an offer that me and my wife can agree will work. I'm more than willing to hear it but this is the best that i can offer.
$8000.00 and the hunt is yours.
08 March 2011, 07:23
elk88101Jake
don't laugh
I sent you an email about this hunt
Larry
08 March 2011, 18:48
elk88101WOW
Jake sent me an email I could not figure it out he was laughing so hard he could not type.

I am hoping he will reconsider.

KennethRayI know what you guys mean, I want to grab this hunt so bad, but I think the fallout from the family could be huge.

mcvsbtI say we pass a hat and collect some money to give Jake just so he'll remove this temptation.
09 March 2011, 23:41
GeedubyaBeing financially embarassed sure sucks

I may have to seek gainful employment and quit buying guns if this keeps up!
Heck, I'd give up smoking cigars for two weeks to do this.
