Hi Folks,
Now that the bear season is behind me I can catch up with some e-mails. I write for this hunting mag, On Wisconsin Outdoors, http://www.onwisconsinoutdoors.com, and mentioned Bear Scents in a recent article. (On the home page "click here to view the latest stories" Diary of a Wisconsin Bear Guide.)

Recently I had 20 bear hunters in camp, all but one hunter had a shot opportunity. Fifteen of the hunters bagged their bear with the biggest one "528lbs" shot by a 12 year old and one of the smallest bears was shot by a 83 year old. The 83 year old said this was to be his last Wisconsin bear hunt and it was great to be part of it. Another of the hunters, Ryan, the disabled young man had a great time and after a few days of hunting finally got his bear.

Words cannot express my gratitude and appreciation. Bear Scents have for many years now been a big part of Northern Wisconsin Outfitters success. I thank you. Talk soon

Great Products,
Your sprays have an extremely strong scent that works great. I have used a few different scents and at one point had 15 different bears hitting my bait daily. Even when the berries ripened and the huge crop of acorns fell these scents kept bear hitting my bait. There were two other baits within a mile of mine and these hunters told me they did not have the bear hitting their baits like I did.

I took this lone sow that dressed out at 306lbs. Your products give the hunter a edge.

Thanks,

Jeremy Nitz

Hey guys,
Just wanted to let you know that your products worked great for us this year. We could definately tell a difference when we used the good stuff, from Bear Scents. The results speak for themselves.

I also feel that every bear hunter should have one of the Bear Scents Big Game Cots in their pack. Having one has saved us countless hours of work packing out our trophies. Most recently after bagging a really nice bear, 6'4" long with a skull right at 20",we used a Bear Scents Big Game Cot and were able to bring out the bear without damageto the bear or our backs.

Thanks,

Idaho is big country and it takes a powerful scent to isolate bears to a small area.
We know a lot of bear hunters that have had poor results trying to bait in our area.
When they finally get bears coming, the bears visit only at night.
Our results have been just the opposite.

Each year we open our baits with a good dose of Bears Scents products. We have never gone more than one day before our bait is hammered. I know that we leave a terrible amount of human scent around because we take the whole family in to prepare the site. Two years ago, I was amazed when the first bear hit the bait 93 minutes after we left.
Last spring it only took 42 minutes!
The bear was there before I could get the family back to the vehicle!

I know that one of the challenges is to get bears at the bait during daylight but we have definitely not had that problem.
Each time we bait I freshen the area with Bear Scents. That strong aroma keeps bears visiting all day long.
Prior to using your products we only sat in the evenings, now we can expect to see mature bears all day.

Because of our success a number of first time hunters have been able to harvest mature boars off our baits.
Thank you for making a product that truly works! Our family looks forward to another
successful year in the bear woods.

"I have been bear hunting in MI. and Ontario for 27 years and have tried everything I could think of. to attract bears. But Nothing works as well as the Bacon Attracted over the years I have taken many big bears from 350 lbs. to 510 lbs. With a 21 5/16 skull with the help of the bacon Spray don't go bear hunting without it. 
-Grant Dix New Hudson, Mi

"On September 7, 2005 I harvested this large bear with the help of your products. The bear weighed 558 lbs live wieight and 480 lbs dressed. The bear stayed within 50 yards of me for 40-45 minutes and I shot him with my bow at 12 yards. The Bear made P and Y and B and C, scoring 21-3/16, thankyou for a successful hunt"
-Ron Roth, Eland, Wi

"You have a great product! The sightings at the Black "Ghost" Bear Camp have
increased since we have been using your scent."
-Terry L. Sheats, Black "Ghost" Bear Camp

"I enclose a photo of the bear I took last September, weighed 240 lbs. and I'm sure the bacon
spray helped attract him and also covered my scent. I'm a believer"
-Bill Graves, Presque Isle, Maine

"I have been using your attractant scents for five years and have been very successful in either harvesting a bear or being afforded the opportunity and passing. This year it was especially evident that your scents were a vital part of my success when a bear appeared down wind very shortly after I sprayed some anise scent from my tree stand. The bear sniffed the air several times before getting in to eight yards where he and my 335 gr. Powerbelt  bullet met."
  -Scott Sordahl, Viroqua, Wi

  "In 2004 we brought Bear Scents into our store. My huntingg partner and I tried the Bacon and Anise sprays. The bacon scent was one of the most powerful scents we?ve used so far and the anise seemed to do an equally fine job.
Out of four bait stations, it was rare when we didn?t have at least three baits being pummeled, and often
all four were taking strong hits. I harvested a bear on opening day and Butch finally got his first bear nearly two weeks later. Thanks for helping us make your product available to Bemidji area hunters.?
-Wayne Schmeling, Hunting/Firearms Mgr., Gander Mountain, Bemidji, MN.

"The best luck I ever had was with your bacon scent. It works great for attracting bear and it works fabulous for scent cover. What I did was put my tree stands 10 to 15 yards away from the bait. The closer the better. Then I sprayed bacon all around the bait, and then on an angle up to the tree stand, all around the stand and the trees next to the stand at the same level so the bear couldn't pinpoint any one location.  The bear my son Ryan got was 340 lbs. The bear walked down wind from him and didn't wind him. I got a 460 lb. bear using a 44 mag. pistol. I made the record books. My friend Tracy Hearns shot a 260 lb. Bear. and the bear was as close as 5 yds. from him.  None of the bear were aware of any hunter being present. I've been using your scents for years now.
But using bacon for the first time this year I say- Give-Me-The-Bacon"
-Gene and Ryan Trisch, Caro, Mi 

"Went to Canada 3 days before the hunt and started spraying Bear Scents. I baited my station and sprayed Honey Bear Scents by the bait. I got in the tree and he was on his way over. The bear of a lifetime ? in a one minute hunt!!"

"Your Hickory Smoke Powder is unbelievable. I had three baits that were untouched for two weeks straight. Finally, I put out some Hickory Smoke Powder. The next day all three baits had been hit! Thanks for a great product."
