RE: Bear Hunt in Alaska - Recommendations
Alaska has many good outfitters, but keep in mind that Alaska is not getting cheaper. There are probably 3 outfitters that I would personally hunt with for bear. The first is Dick Gunlogson. I have hunted with him and he is the #1 person to go with if money is not the issue and if you truly want a shot at an honest 10ft. bear. His camp for over 30 years, is at the end of the pennisula near the start of the Aleutian Islands in a real no-mans-land. His hunters have taken the #1 bear in Alaska in the APHA/SCI competition for the last 2 seasons!
The other outfitters are both located on Kodiak and would be Dick Rohrer and Mike Muncey of Muncey's bear camp. E-mail me if need contact info.
You may also want to consider Russia. That is where I am planning to go for the same bears that they have in Alaska. The difference is a much cheaper cost, a chance to hunt another country and virtually %100 success.
