    Black Bear Hunting for a New Hunter

    Just got on the list for a group bear hunt my friend goes on every year. I’m super excited but not sure how a group hunt works. Will get more info from him when I talk to him again.

    Thats a nice one, thanks for sharing. It will be a ways off before I get to try my hand at it. But I would probably use hounds. Hopefully going black bear hunting this fall so if I can tick that one off my list then I’m going to start looking at hunting the cats.

    Hi I am new to hunting and bagging a mountain lion is on my list of things to do. Would just like to hear from those who have taken one or more of the big cats and what weapon did you use. Also if you have pics I would love to see them.

    Black Bear Hunting for a New Hunter

    Reconnected with my best childhood friend who is an avid hunter and he is going to get me in on a group bear hunt here in SC he does every year. He said he’s taken over 30 black bears in SC. Can’t wait until fall. I’m gonna buy another 300 win mag like I had before. I really liked that rifle and...

    Black Bear Hunting for a New Hunter

    Looked into some guided hunts in Maine and they are actually cheaper than the one I found in NC and the hunts are over bait. I didn’t know we had that much of a bear population in SC. Good to know I will check those out also. Jocassee isn’t far from me at all. I also have to check out GA as I...

    Black Bear Hunting for a New Hunter

    I have given that’s some thought but the place I was looking at doing the guided hunt with do hounds. I’m gonna start looking for others though. They are in NC which would be a lot easier on my wallet but I’m sure there’s someone who does it over bait. Thanks for the tip.

    Black Bear Hunting for a New Hunter

    Thanks I’m actually retired now on disability. Got hurt and had to quit working. That’s the one thing I’m not sure about with hunting. Not sure I can keep up with hounds but I’m gonna try. The good thing is I get my 3 year hunting license free (SC license). I’ve always loved the .308 but I had a...

    Black Bear Hunting for a New Hunter

    So what would be considered an effective range for the .44 magnum rifle? I haven’t really shot it much yet. It’s a new rifle.

    Black Bear Hunting for a New Hunter

    Black Bear Hunting for a New Hunter

    I have never been hunting but a dream of mine is to go on a guided black bear hunt in NC. I have been shooting all my life whether in the military or as a SWAT officer and just for fun. I am a pretty good shot. The only thing is at the moment I only own a new Ruger made Marlin 1894 in .44 magnum...
