Is making a ground blind from natural material an option, branches ect an option? Maybe throw some burlap over it At least it wont cost you much $$ ??

Have you considered getting a bear tag? CO would have a hard time claiming that the blind was bait.

Good question. I guess you would have to ask the people who use them to scare bears off at some of the industrial camps or the guys who use them to dissuade polar bears in some northern towns. I know that under certain circumstances I would have no problem using them. Think Grizzly showing up in your camp late at night.

Rubber Slugs are considered wildlife harrassment by CO's,,I do this for a living, and we are not allowed to use them,,shock rounds are okay,,,,no projectile

Electric Fence keeps anything off including Black & Grizzly Bears, just more Gear to lug around.
Btw. no more needed Fiberglass 3/8" Tent poles make excellent electric Fence posts. Small ATV Battery supplies ample power.

Margo Supplies in Alberta has the best electric fences that Ive found

How about a .45 bullet, if not a .338? Usually disuades them pretty quickly I find.

Joke aside, seems like there's pretty good suggestions. I too have heard cayenne pepper is a pretty good deterrent.

Bear in mind there are a few methods described but you may need to be the bearer of bad news for that bruin and dispatch him....
