Polar Bear Hunt in Canada's Arctic


We are sold out until 2014 but we do get extra permits from time to time. Please fill out the information request form to be put on our waiting list.

This is the “Ultimate” Arctic hunt for one of the world's most formidable predators and the #1 big game trophy in North America. Government biologists closely monitor Polar Bear populations in the Canadian Arctic and allow a limited amount of licenses to be issued each year in the Western Hudson Bay Population. The Polar Bears migrate northward from the Churchill, Manitoba area which is known as the Polar Bear Capital of the World.

Our first hunts for Polar Bears were carried out in November 2006 when Jeff Chaulk of Gaylord, MI harvested a 10-1/2’ Polar Bear that made #9 SCI all-time. Since then, we have been able to maintain an average of over 9 feet. Our clients have seen anywhere from 5-10 bears a day with some of our clients seeing 100 bears in 10 days of hunting.

For your comfort and safety, we built a camp in 2006, approximately 100 miles north of Churchill, Manitoba, the Polar Bear capital of the World. You stay in comfortable 12x16 insulated cabins with spiked doors and windows to keep our nightly visitors out. The cabins come with indoor toilets, propane heaters and generated electricity. A separate 12x28 cabin serves as the kitchen for hearty home cooked meals and a place to get together in the evenings for cards games and relaxation. We also have a central shower room in one of the buildings.

Why fall hunts? You will see 80% more bears compared to spring hunts and the temperatures are milder. The fall temperatures can be anywhere between -10c to -25c compared to -40 below temperatures in March.

Our fall hunt is 10 days. Contact us for current prices.

Caribou can be taken for a trophy fee of $1500.00
