I booked an Idaho spring bear hunt for my son, grandson, and brother and I yesterday. The per person hunt prices:
- $1785 (15% discount for our party)
- $154 Hunting Lic.
- $41.75 NR Special Tag
- $160 (6% state and 3% Federal tax)
5 days of hunting
We might add 1-2 hunters in the next couple of weeks to fill up our camp.
I'm excited because this is a 3 generation party. My son is 35 and the grandson is 11. All will be bowhunting except the grandson. He shoots bows but I don't think he'll be at an ethical draw weight by June. I'll be the only recurve in camp.
The outfitter has Fall camps in Maine and Spring/Fall in Idaho.
I went on a bargain basement hunt to New Brunswick last June - $1,300. Four of us. Only one saw bears and no shots taken.
