Hungary is about the size of Indiana and borders Austria on the west and Romania on the east. Very fertile rolling plains abound. Both the Danube and Tisza Rivers dominate, splitting the country into 3 parts. The high point is only 2,894 feet. The forestry area in northeastern Hungary called GUTH/ NYIRERDÖ -- is famous for its excellent game, especially the main game of fallow deer. This area produces some true giants and many have made SCI record books. In addition, there are Red Deer, Roe deer and Wild Boar. To hunt in the area known as Guth is a special experience, where quality is paramount. Very high success- usually 100%. 

The chargeable weight of the horns needs to be entered into the hunting protocol by the game reserve. The basis of invoicing is the trophy weight that has been officially determined by the Trophy Assessment Commission 24 hours after boiling. The harvested and paid trophy is the property of the hunter, except for the game meat, which can be acquired by the hunting guest at an extra charge. The same applies to coats.

The outfitter hunts along the Lochsa River out of a Base camp.  He also does Wilderness hunts from tent outposts. 

Like most bear hunts, you only hunt in the afternoon, since this is when they see a majority of the bear activity on the baits.  Tree stands and ground blinds are set up weeks in advance so the bears have time to get used to the bait area, making them more likely to come in during the daylight hours.  Access to the baits is by vehicles, on foot, horseback, and they also raft across the river to reach many never before baited spots.  This is an any-weapon hunt, so one bear can be taken with a rifle and next with a bow, or even a pistol.  On occasion you will do a mid-day hillside hunt to watch some open canyons that bears may be using to do some grazing earlier in the day.

They do very well on this hunt at around 90% success, with opportunity easily reaching 100% annually.  Bears on this hunt average from 5'10" to 6'6" in length, they will take some each year getting up to 7 feet long, with the largest being 8 foot.  The bears this time of year tend to weigh in around 200-300 pounds.  You can count on seeing about 50% color phase bears.  This hunt is 5 days and includes all lodging and meals.

These hunts are from their regular lodge, which is on private ground and overlooks a game rich area for whitetails, mulies, elk, turkey and of course bear. Over the years during elk season they noticed the large number of bears on their two ranches, so about 10 years ago they started putting out some bear baits in the spring and it was a huge success.  This is a one bear area in a combo with up to 2 turkey tags.  This hunt takes place on both their ranches in units 13 and 14.

Access to the baits is fairly easy, usually drive right up to them by 4-wheeler.  As for success on the bear hunts they do very well, around 95% success on this hunt, with opportunity reaching 100% most years.  Average bears are from 5'10" to 6'6", with some going 7 foot and larger.  They also average about 50% on color phase bears.  They range from dark chocolate brown to cinnamon, blonde, and red.
