Go read the bear forum.Hi, yes, I'll be in decent shape for the hunt - I have no issues killing a bear if its a life & death situation (May try bear hunting next year). I've learned a little bit from the lodges but mostly that there are no guarantees and to be prepared to sit in nature for many hours but, not much in the way of hunting strategy besides being aware of the wind direction. I'm hunting the same lodge in early November this year and am going to ask them to let me dress my own deer.
My concern in going solo is mostly around not knowing the land (I'm working on maps and charting a hiking path on my gps watch now) and not having enough experience in field dressing a deer
Then do it again.
