oh, this should get you bear hunters in the mood. It's under 3 minutes long.

sounds awesome. my brother in law is doing the same thing only in Michigan. a do it yourself bear hunt.... also with a home made longbow........and homemade arrows. he put in for 5 years before he got drawn.
Schultzy, you lucky dog! I've applied for tags in Minnesota for 5 out of the last 6 years and still haven't been able to get one. I have a friend who lives NE of Fargo and he takes a giant every year. A couple of years ago he sent me a pic of a 550 lb boar he took. Good Luck! Stay Safe! & HAVE FUN!!!!

RE: Minnesota Bear hunt 2008
Been applying for the No Quota Zone up in the extreme Northwest corner of the state. I really want to go up there for two reasons: 1. Da Bears; and 2. My grandfather had a farm up there in the early 1900's. The place that was the farm is now inside a state park, but I was told that the foundation of his cabin is still there. Since my grandfather passed away when my father was 7 years old, I just want to check out the farm area and stand in the same place as him once.

Mark, you do not need to apply for a license In a no quota area. Trust me you do not need to! You buy a no quota license over the counter. No lottery involved in any no quota bear hunting areas. In the no quota areas you can also shoot 2 bear. I bear hunted in the Roseau area my 1st 2 years bear hunting. I was able to shoot a bear each year luckily.

AF, I actually live in a no-quota area. As stated, you get two bear tags and do NOT need to enter in a drawing. OTC.
I have a fellow HNI'er coming, next year, we'll just go buy his tag when he gets here.
Good catch Steve.
