Lot 15 6-Day Minnesota Black Bear Hunt
Giant Minnesota Black Bear Hunt – 6 Days for 1 Hunter
Experience the ultimate black bear hunting adventure with legendary bear hunter, Tim Kresel. This incredible 6-day hunt offers one hunter the opportunity to pursue giant Minnesota black bears with one of the most successful big bear hunters in North America.
Tim has personally harvested more giant black bears than any other hunter on the continent, taking dozens of bears ranging from 300 to nearly 700 pounds during a 30-year obsession with understanding and hunting mature bears.
This hunt may take place in Minnesota’s over-the-counter no-quota areas with no draw required, or in one of the recommended permit areas that generally take 2–3 years to draw. Upon purchase, Tim will advise the winning bidder on the best zones to apply for.
