Looking to head out to Idaho this coming spring in search of a color phase black bear, we just don’t have any colors in Ga. Looking for a good outfitter and figured some of you gentlemen might could point me in the right direction. Wouldn’t mind a “diy” hunt on public ground but I would rather pay a little and hedge my bets, as Idaho and Georgia are a good ride apart. Thanks guys

If your willing to put in work (do some hiking) there's very good opportunity to find what your looking for. I'm in the north part near Wallace

I would recommend these guys, but I understand joe recently died so not sure if his son took over or not.

Sent you a pm pinecricker

Thanks Rick, I’ll check them out!
