Here's a few 19a 2014 (I edited the hunter out incase they didn't want to share) but that's just the beginning of them

I have counted 15 and hoping for 16 this weekend. A lot of pics on broadhead brotherhood in fb

Thanks Rick! I'm in northwest Mesa so maybe I can come check it out tomorrow or later this week

I am interested in the ruger! Can u email me some close up pics to americanoutlaw10@gmail.com. I am near Mesa so what part of Mesa are you in bc I would def like to give it a closer look! Thanks

Are these still available? I would be interested in making an offer if they are! U can email me @ americanoutlaw10@gmail.com

Lark- it's Timothy "Treadwell" like they said, and he did grow up to be s*!t, .... Bear Sh!t! Nobody has told me why u would hire a dog guide yet. - Not the thrill of finding them( the dogs do that) - not the thrill of out witting em! Is it bc More expensive? Less likely to succeed? More "risk"? Harder to keep up? Or just idiot looking to spend extra money?

In playing devils advocate- so I'm a hunter who wants to shoot a bear! Why would i hire a guide who says, "pick me, my hunts are more grueling, more hazardous, less likely to be successful, and also will run ya about $1000 more bucks than a spot and stalk hunt!" ? When u find those guys tell them I got a chupacabra hunt for sale! I guess I don't get what the selling point is?

All that is true CouseKiller.300. I agree the owners have more at risk! If u think its hard not knowing how far you will hike, How hard is it hiking hard and not knowing if you will ever see something? Sure Glassing you can see more, but I would like to know the success rate comparison between dog hunts and spot and stalk hunts in comparison to how many people do it? Most big bears I glass are nowhere near a beaten path! And there's never a guarantee that they will be there by the time u get within range! There is no factor to hold a bear stationary while u catch up! To each their own! My personal opinion is that dog hunts are more successful and easier for bears than spot and stalk! If u think different let's agree to disagree!

It's the same handful of folks saying the same thing. Like I said, I respect the effort one puts into training dogs! And if hunting with them is so hard why shouldn't u be allowed to put them in the record books? Why aren't u fighting for that right? "paws and jaws" post said they treed seven bears in five days! Post like that make it appear more doable than without dogs! Everyone has the right to support or dislike any type of hunting they want. And just because u like one doesn't mean u have to like them all. And just because u like theirs doesn't mean they have to like urs! .270- it an idiot! Opinions aren't lies! And because they don't agree with your doesn't make them any less true. Just because u own some hunting dogs doesn't mean the general census is that its good or bad! There are alot of things harder than hunting bears, like 26 months in Iraq! Chasing dogs is not the toughest thing ever!

Kninebirddog- is that all u got! PETA! Maybe it's fools like u that give them leverage. Especially when u post ur pics and videos of a bear stuck in a tree with a dozen dogs around it while I walk ur dog chasin butt up there to shoot it bc u couldn't get it done on ur own! I didn't have a problem with dog hunters, I still don't, I just don't respect the idiots who are so narrow minded they become extremist by saying bc someone doesn't respect their hunting style they must be PETA. Once again, tell me why dog run hunting is more sportsmanlike than fair chase? And tell me why their are no dog run hunting shows besides for fowl?

Lark- never once have I said ban anything! N I haven't heard one person say that hunting without dogs is easier than with! And im not claiming dog hunts are a cake walk all the time. (1995 was when the amended the guiding law) Glasses do make it easier! So do high powered rifles! So u must think neither are used during dog hunts... Rifles are really good when ur target doesn't move. But neither rifles nor optics hold an animal in a location so u can catch up to it like dogs do! Put ur dogs on a bear 2 miles away, n glass up a bear two miles away! Tell me which one u shoot! Bc by the time u hike to the bear (or ride ur horse) likely the bear is gone not like with dogs! Get on a flat or in a canyon and tell me how well those optics work for finding bears. Then compare it to dogs! I personally thing dogs is less sportsman likethan without! That's just my opinion! Give me some examples of why it is more sportsman like.

N the poll should be more a question " is bear hunting with dogs more respectable than without?" the only people who are going to say no to ur poll are antis or people who are extremely against it bc any hunter would support dogs over not hunting!

Oh I'm not asking to ban it! And I know nobody who does it illegally, bc the law was different back then! But maybe I should just follow someone who hires dogs! Maybe it will change my mind! Does anyone think dogs make bear hunting harder?

Lark- this tree and call was bak before they changed the law requiring hunters to be present at the release of the hounds in 1995! U should know that as a avid guide with dogs! And I'm not gonna convince any one that they should stop using dogs, just like they won't convince them to allow ur bears in the record books! And FYI that is 6 bear kills not counting my three all to first time hunters! And ifwe were to have gone after every bear we had a real chance to shoot, i woulda been on atleast 30 in the last five years n I don't even guide for bear! Just like im sure u all dont shoot every bear u tree! Best of luck to u in whatever way u chose to hunt them I am just saying I choice to do it without the dogs! (ps- what serious hunter doesn't have a 100,000 invested in it)

.270 I am not anti bear hunting by any means! In the last three years I have shot three bears! I also treed the bear that was in the post by dan about chocolate bear!(it would be dead by me if it wasn't outta season) If that's not a boar I don't know what is! I will also be bear hunting this weekend! I have been involve in six bear kills in the last 5 years. I am the farthest thing from anti hunting! I have spent 32 weekends in the last year hunting! I know bear as well as anyone who has only been at it nine years! Of u think it's hard doing it with it dogs! Do it without! If it's easier then why would anyone need ur service, when they can take the easy route for the same price! No camp ground bears and no creek bears! I could tell u exactly who was doing the hunts
