Hunting Bears

For most hunters in North America, taking a bear is incidental to hunting deer. For others, however, challenging a big bruin on its own turf is the purpose of their hunt and may become an obsession. Whether it involves hunting the wary black bear in Maine over bait, chasing a clever black bear trying to avoid a pack of hounds in the Rocky Mountains, sneaking up with a bow on a huge grizzly, placing the crosshairs on a massive brown bear as it exits an ice-cold Alaskan stream, or enduring bitterly cold temperatures and inhospitable hunting conditions while hunting the hunter—the great white polar bear—bear hunting is an adventure only for those of strong heart and mind. In Etling’s latest book, Hunting Bears: The Most Dangerous Game, she covers all aspects of bear hunting and all species of bears to hunt—black, grizzly, brown, and polar—from North America to Russia. She has omitted no tactic, strategy, or bear behavior and includes interviews with many of the nation’s most successful bear hunters as well. Between the covers of this book is information that most bear hunters would take a lifetime to amass. If hunting any of the bears found in North America or the world is your dream, you'll want to add HUNTING BEARS: THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME to your outdoor library. It will provide you hours of first-rate reading and will inspire you to bag your trophy bruin. It contains hard-core, useful information that you can put to the test the next time you’re afield stalking the most challenging and dangerous game found in North America today.
