HUNT REPORT

HUNTER: Matt Janes
HUNT: White Mountain Apache Black Bear Hunt in Arizona

May, 2018

This is the second time I’ve gone on this black bear hunt.

Not disappointed. Arizona is a great place to go bear hunting if you want to be selective. The Apache have an amazing resource and I feel fortunate to have spent time there.

The guides know the plan and execute on it.

Trust their judgement. They want you to kill a great bear and have a good experience. They will give you the best opportunity. You just need to be patient and work the plan. As the hunter, your job is easy if you just follow their advice. They know how to hunt black bears. Don’t overthink things.

My hunt was absolutely top notch.

The outfitter is a fantastic man and incredibly hard working and knowledgeable, there is no doubt he will do everything within his power to make peoples hunts successful and enjoyable. I plan to do it again with him next year for sure.

Our hunt was excellent.

We saw bucks every day along with all other sorts of wildlife. Mountain goats, bears, and foxes were common sights. Fishing and crabbing was special bonus. The food was excellent, the crew was amazing. Outdoors International did a great job of finding exactly what we were looking for.

What an amazing experience!

The hunting lodge was out of this world!, Rooms, food and the scenery were all A+. Our guide was exceptional and had us on Shiras moose all five days. We saw over 30 total with at least 10 bulls. They had a plan for everything including taxidermy and game processing.
