Dear Bear Hunters,

Thanks for your interest in Big Paws Outfitters, LLC. Please complete the enclosed hunter's registration form and we will enter you in the application process for the Minnesota fall bear hunt. Up to four people can be entered on the same drawing. A $1,000.00 deposit is required for each hunter and is refunded if you or you group is unsuccessful in drawing your bear tags. This will be a memorable hunt with the fall beauty of Minnesota, great food, fantasist fishing available, and of course hunting black bear. You have a great chance at harvesting a color phase bear during your stay and a good age structure lends itself to an excellent opportunity at a book bear.

We need to receive applications and deposits as soon as possible to be entered into the application process. Once you have booked your bear hunt we will be contacting you to confirm receipt of your deposit and to send you additional information containing a suggested gear list and pre-hunt preparation and for more information such as weapon choice, right or left handed, limitations, and abilities to ensure your hunt is one that you will remember in a positive way forever.

Remember this a all inclusive hunt for $2,195.00 except hunting license, that includes 5 day guided hunt on great baits that are monitored with cameras, 5 nights lodging, three meals a day, animal retrieval, trophy care, meat preparation and a whole lot more than you expect. Non hunting guest rates are $1,200.00 for the hunt period. 

Here are some names of past hunters. The names on the left are hunters who killed bears and the next did not. We include these names for you to contact for added assurance that you are booking your hunt with a reputable outfitter. Please do not contact the resort about bear or bear hunting questions, save those questions for Gary. Call for group rates. We look forward to hunting with you this fall.

Sincerely,

Gary A. Tank
