Each of our hunters are provided with 2 - 3 active stands that haven't been utilized by any other hunter for that season, which means that you have a fresh stand from the beginning. Our territory covers approximately 250 square miles of exclusive black bear territory with approximately 30 baited stands. In addition, part of our area hunted is adjacent to the World's Largest Game Preserve. This gives you an added advantage because the game preserve is protected from regular hunting pressure. Over half of our hunters experience more than one active bear at their stands which provides additional opportunities. With this in mind, we put a lot of time and dedication toward our hunts and hunters. Remember, our stats speaks for themselves, 100% of our regular bear hunters have shot a bear since 2003.
