This review is from: Bear Hunting in Alaska (Paperback)

This book is a must for anyone seriously considering hunting brown/grizzly bears. Tony Russ covers every aspect of the trip, including a complete list of every piece of necessary gear, what to expect, how to find bears, how to judge bears, how to stalk bears or choose a good stand/blind location, how to make the shot, and how to care for a bear hide once you've got your bear. He also covers generalities, such as bear biology and behavior, how to prepare physically for a bear hunt, and when and where a bear hunter should focus his efforts. It is an extraordinarily easy read in which one can find everything he needs to know before setting out after these magnificent beasts.
