Welcome to Bear Down Guide and Outfitting Services...

Offering you the experience to hunt black bear in their natural environment!

Bear down bear guide and outfitting service offers Northern Minnesota bear hunting over bait stations that are active! Our guided 5 day hunts include accommodations, guide services, and the experience to produce results. Our success rate was over 40% last year with a 90% opportunity rate.

At Bear Down Guide Services we do our best to make your hunt an enjoyable experience providing two cabins with full electricity including; Stove, refrigerator, electric heat, sleeping quarters with some blankets and pillows provided. We also have a sauna and a portable heated shower.

Last year: I had 22 hunters and 18 of those hunters had shot opportunities with nine bears harvested.

Note: Many bears were passed up because of sows with cubs, immature bears, or hunter errors.

The 2009 season looks to be even better than last year due to extensive after season scouting and new hunting areas available, along with a heavier the normal snow to help with bear den survival.

Our guided 5 day hunt: The guide will bring you to your stand and pick you up after your hunt each day. If your hunt is successful, the bear will be field dressed on site and taken back to the cabin. The guide will take the bear to be caped and quartered and put into a cooler until your departure. In some cases your bear can be processed before your departure at costs to the hunter, A taxidermist is also available upon request.

Note: Nothing in the hunting world is a guarantee, which is why we call it hunting and not shooting. Our guarantee to you is that we will make every effort to make your hunt enjoyable and exciting.
