guided bear hunts in the states are very expensive with iffy chances of getting a bear. canada hunts run 2000-3000 for nice hunts with fishing included and 100% shot opportunity, no fence, just that many bears.

I will try and put this into perspective. Nobody should just want to "kill" a bear. I grew up going to canada and bait hunting bears every year. I killed a bear before I killed a deer. Ive killed some in quebec and have gone back twice in the last five years. I didnt kill a bear on either of those hunts although they were wonderful experiences. I also hunt with a traditional bow and it limits the distances and baits that I could hunt. The place I went to this June was a 100 percent oppurtunity outfit and I highly recommend them (taggart bay lodge) but for 30 plus hours of driving and a lot of cash, neither me or my two compadres shot at a bear. It was an unbelieveable experience (as it always is in the boreal forest) but no bears were drawn down on. Had we been gun or compound hunters, we all would have killed one. I did catch a 29", 10lb walleye so Im not crying.

Fast forward 3 months and the ga bear opener, I saw three legal bears by the second hour of daylight and killed a nice sow.

BUT- I spend my summers making trips up there, glassing acorn trees. I spend my winters checking new saddles and gaps. The best bear hunting Ive seen in my life was during the acorn shortage of 2013. I killed a nice bear the second sunday of archery and then gave the coordinates to everyone I knew who wanted to kill one. A buddy of mine saw 14 bears in trees in one afternoon!


So, the grass isnt always greener. Go to canada because you want to experience the boreal forest and walleye and pike and the whole adventure. Go to north ga because you love the mountains and the wilderness and the work.
