Black bear are very numerous and can get to an old age in our area. The
seasons are more conservative than other areas and no baiting is allowed.
This gives the bears a chance to grow to trophy size. We hunt in mountainous
areas that have numerous old homestead and millions of fruit trees, plum, apple,
cherry, chokecherry, pear to name a few. This is the main food source in the fall
and bears travel for miles to come to these long time food sources. Since these
fruits are mostly on private land we get to manage our populations to ensure high
success. Great genetics and a rich food supply have a lot to do with the trophy
size black bears taken every year by Reggear Outfitters.
