We do not have enough bear to just train that way so we run drags with bear scent across roads and along the sides of roads to get them started. Is there a better way?

I have not done this yet but i've herd it works rell well.Get a coon in a cage and put the bear sent on him.They say a coon is close in smelling the same anyway.If you try it let us now.

We have used a coon with bear scent for many years on drags and to train for treeing and it has worked great. So it should work for this also. Thanks for the idea..

I DO BELIEVE THAT DOING WHAT YOUR DOING WITH YOUR BEAR SCENT, FOR YOU IS THE BEST IDEA SINCE YOU CAN'T US THE REAL THING [A BEAR.] MAKE SURE THEY ARE COMFORTABLE RIDING ON THE BOX OR HOOD. STARTING A PUP // FEED HIM UP ON TOP TO GET THEM USE TO BEING THERE
IF YOU SPRAY YOUR BEAR SCENT ON A COON YOU WILL HAVE TWO DIFFERENT SCENTS.
ONCE YOU GET YOUR DOGS STRIKING GO TO THE BEAR WOODS AND START DRIVING
IF THERE BEAR MINDED THEY WILL STRIKE
