Hi everyone, Well I headed up to Northern Saskatchewan on May 6 to check out camp ,help bait,and to get my brother in law David his first black bear and film it! Well the hunt lasted a hour lol......we walked into a bait and two large boars were on it and ran off a short distance.....Jeremy said one was 18+ and one was 20+.....we hung two stands and a soon as Jeremy's truck was down the road the big boy was on his way back.....he came in but never offered David a great shot......he grabbed a fish and walked off into bush......we could hear him eating and see a big black blob back in the bush.....we watched the blob for 40 minutes or so when I heard David say "he is up and coming" in a hurry I glanced to the spot and seen black legs getting close .....I got my camera out and ready ......the bruin cleared the bush I focused got David and bear both in shot.....David drew.....Then this little voice in my head said ....that's the other bear...."thwack".... Well as many first few time bear guys know the big and bigger bears are hard to tell apart.....well David made a perfect shot.....and after a short track job ....a P&Y 18.5" bear was his! Great bear great hunt! But I'd lie if I said I wasn't mad at myself for not yelling "wait " lol.......Ill add all the hunters pics on this thread...keep checking back! Tsov

We leave Saturday, can't wait. I'd sure like to top the one I got 2 years ago up there. I think a chocolate would be nice, but if a black one comes in with a nice crease, he'd be hard to pass.

Week two done ..1 bear almost 19"...1 bears over 19" one over 20.5" and the last hunter was a guy who has one bear with Lone Wolf Camps that scored over 19" and he held out for a 20"+ and the boys put him on a giant but with love in the air he went chasing a sow....The big bears went missing at end of the week and he didnt see a big bear ....man tough luck ! But thats hunting! Maybe next time Greg! Guys caught lots of fish and had a great time! 5 hunters fly in today! Will post pics for you all as soon as I get them!

My bear finished out at 19 3/4"... The goal was 20". The wife has already given permission for the return. If you don't mind the travel it takes to get there you got a good chance of killing a really old and really big bear.

Hey guys....wow something great happened today! Gary hit a bear and didn't recover it....so he paid re-hunt fee and today he was 10 miles from the spot where he wounded his bear and it showed up!!! He made a great shot and got the bear!!! And saved his $1500 re-hunt fee!! Lol awesome news!!!! It green scored 19 3/4 "!! So he and his son shot 40 1/4 inches of P&Y skulls!!! Great job guys!! Only at Lone Wolf Camps!!! Tsov

From: TSOV
03-Jun-16
It was a OOI head ....now dont want to start a debate on this but looks like only one blade deployed and he got 6" of penetration is all ...im not sure of exact placement...but it was a close shot and the head failed...amazing story how he got it....was meant to be his bear thats for sure!!!

From: onetohunt
04-Jun-16
Yeah it just amazed me how far the bear traveled. That is an amazing within itself, much less that he was able to hunt a different stand so far away and the same bear came by it as well!!! That's pretty awesome!!

Tom,thanks for the great advice on this hunt. Brian and Jeremy are great bear guys. The bear I hit on Wednesday night was hit right in the lung area. Here is what happened! The shot was spot on. The mechanical I used somehow got deflected by a rib and possibly the hide. It shot forward just before it hit lungs. Thankfully, pilot error was not the reason. Jeremy told me that on big bears, mechanicals have given them fits. I was surprised by this but he has much more experience than I do. The next night that same boar came in with the 3 inch gash showing on the right side which served as a perfect target for the second shot. The arrow armed with a shuttle T this time hit the same exact hole and passed through. My son was with me on that hunt and first saw the bear and said, "there's your bear". I had no idea he meant that exact bear. What a crazy story. Thanks for recommending a great outfit. Rebooking for May of 2017. Gary, Guardian Hunting LLC
