## Resource

Bear Hunting with Josh Kirchner - What You're Getting Wrong About Bear Behavior is a ground-level conversation with one of Western hunting's most analytical minds on what actually separates hunters who find bears consistently from those who don't. Josh Kirchner of Dialed In Hunter has built his reputation on process-driven Western hunting — and spring bear hunting is where that process is most exposed. In this episode, we go deep on bear behavior, terrain interpretation, and the mental adjustments most hunters never make. Josh has been called a "landscape interpreter" — and this conversation will change how you see the mountain. About Josh Kirchner: Josh is the founder of Dialed In Hunter and one of the most recognized voices in Western hunting. He specializes in spot-and-stalk black bear hunting in Arizona and across the West.
