    First time bear

    in Introductions

    I have been thru there many times (never hunting) and I agree with your "no slouch" description.   Certainly it is not in the same "world-class" league on scenery as the Adirondacks though, and I doubt Teddy Roosevelt would have felt as "at home" there.     Also, maybe these guys are looking for a challenge, and it sounds like the Adirondacks would provide a greater one, based on the numbers that you quoted. 
    Like I said though, there is a danger.  After you get a few kills under your belt in the Adirondacks, the rest of the world's hunting adventures loose much of their appeal:

    p.s: first snow is nice up there but peak fall foliage is even nicer.


    Yes, I much prefer to hunt the Flint Hills and Great Plains here in KS, even though all the KS monster bucks are on farmland.

    Yeah, I’m hunting NY bears and Oregon elk this year—might need to talk to someone about decision-making . Fact is, my brother can’t swing any big western hunts this year and we want to get together. NY has good non-resident prices for the deer/bear combo. He’s in Ohio so will not have to take as much time off work and can pull his camper up there. And, I happen to think the Adirondacks are gorgeous but haven’t been up in that country in a long time.

    Howdy, folks. My brother and I are planning our first black bear hunt this year so I figured I’d join y’all and try to get some NY/bear pointers. I’ve been a small game hunter most of my life, been hunting whitetails out here in KS for the past four years, and went to CO for an elk hunt in 2018, so not a complete newbie but certainly not an expert. Any pointers are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
