Stop an angry, charging bear with this amazingly effective deterrent. UDAP Bear Spray has been proven effective in dozens of bear attacks. During a bow-hunt over a decade ago, Mark Matheny was attacked by a grizzly bear and suffered numerous bite lacerations in the head and neck. Mark's wounds would have been much worse, if not fatal, had it not been for a burst from a pepper spray that ended the attack. Mark's experience changed his life. Since then, he has dedicated himself to improving a product designed to safeguard people against maulings, and to help them coexist with wildlife.
The result is this spray, which consists of a super-hot, oil-based formula that instantly affects eye, nose and lung tissue to stop a charge. This formula is non-lethal, EPA registered, tested to 0 degrees Fahrenheit and is legal to carry across the Canadian border. It also is equipped with glow-in-the-dark safety cap for quick reference. A hip holster is included. Spray canister is 7.9 ounces.

A trial shot.,August 21, 2009
By Horsestufffrom Clatskanie, Or.
"A couple of years ago I had taken my bear spray with us on our vacation to my brothers place in Montana. Talking to my brother one evening I told him that I had a can of bear spray that I had for probably five years at least, he said to me well why don't you try it out with a little blast to see if it still works. Well I was down in his basement my wife was up stairs. I had my hunting bag with me sitting there in the basement. There was the bear spay in eye shot, so a bright thought came to me saying self it shouldn't hurt to give that spay a try. I was still in the basement when I took the spay aim it to a spot where my brothers bow was sitting, thinking I don't think this can of spray will even work. Well one little touch of the trigger and whoosh the spay put out a blast that was so big that it hit my bothers bow which was probably 10 feet away that the spray covered the bow and some old pillows and a old blanket. Well I started coughing, gaging, sneezing, then I heard my wife who was up stiars start doing the same thing. We had to open ever door and try and get the smell out before brother came home. We did get the house aired out, I washed bros bow three times, and my wife washed the pillows and bankets three times. So I found out the spay is sooo powerful, it does and amazing job. Brother ask the question why didn't you try it out side, who would of thought of that. I'm amazed of the power of this product."

Great Product,August 9, 2009
By jakes1from SoCal
"I bought this product before taking a trip to Alaska, in which I would be doing a lot of hiking.
I found the information packet that came with it to be outstanding. Lots of good info on bears, what to do in many situations, and when to use the spray.
Thankfully, I did not have to use it, but I test fired it (as recommended in the info packet). The wind changed direction slightly and my wife and I got a whiff of this stuff. It is some nasty stuff--a good thing.
The holster that came with it is of high quality and is very comfortable to wear."

UDAP #12 Bear Spray very effective,July 20, 2009
By NevadaWfrom Winnemucca, NV
"UDAP #12 Bear Spray is just the ticket for stopping aggressive dogs in their tracks. While riding my bicycle, I've used it a few times on large & small dogs that were chasing me. I have a quick-draw mount using the included baggie. I ride around the same neighborhood most days, and have never had to spray the same dog more than once. Now when I pass by, they retreat and don't make a sound, just watch me. They don't like the stuff. They learn fast. I'm enjoying this product. Shoots out a considerable blast of pepper, so aiming is easy, not too critical."

Bear Spray not allowed in all National Parks,July 14, 2009
By Bubbabutterfieldfrom Lexington, SC
"FYI, I camped recently in the Great Smoky Mtn National Park, and learned that bear spray was not legal, and could face a big fine for even carrying it in my vehicle. Oh boy! I guess we'll stick to throwing rocks and logs at the varmints!"

This looks good!,May 27, 2009
By FloridaPapafrom Central Florida
"I bought the Jogger Pepper spray to carry every day during my daily walk. But while I was shopping for it I saw this Bear Spray with hip holster. I didn't know they made pepper spray to ward off bears! I was intrigued with that, so I bought it more out of curiosity than actual need.
Now that I have it, I must say that I'm impressed with it. It's not likely I'll run into a bear in my Central Florida neighborhood, although, that isn't much of a stretch because black bears frequent the Ocala National Forest which is only about ten miles away. But if I do I want to be carrying this stuff with me.
I read the label and compared it with the Jogger Pepper Spray I carry daily (there are some aggressive and nasty dogs in my neighborhood). This Bear stuff is WAY more powerful and can spray three times as far! While the Jogger Spray says it's effects aren't permanent and last for about 45 minutes, this Bear Spray says it can cause permanent blindness if I spray it in someone's eyes! That's the kind of power I want if I'm ever confronted by a bear."

Other than Bears,September 22, 2008
By dragonfly0267from State of Washington
"I am soon moving to a semi-wilderness area where there are many deer, cougars, and other wild animals. Also, being concerned for my own safety from the human variety (I am an older woman) I have talked to the police on two different occasions to find out what kind of self-defense is available other than carrying fire-arms. I was advised to get "Bear Spray" (which I'd never heard of). They referred me to a gun shop who referred me to Cabelas on-line. I'm pleased with the size/appearance of this product & with the potential of reaching much further than pepper spray. The safety latch is a most desirable feature. Really hope to never have to use it, but if it is needed I'll be very glad I found it. Thank you, Cabelas."

By DandyDavefrom fayetteville, arkansas
"I had captured a few pictures of a black bear and three cubs on my game camera and decided it might be a good idea to get some kind of repellant, just in case. IT fits on my belt perfect and is right were I need it if I need to act fast. I dont want to be forced to shoot a mama with cubs. I havent had to use it yet , thank God. I take it with me every time I go into the woods."

"Not having been attacked or harassed by a bear, I have generously given this product a 5 star rating based on construction and ease of use. IF attacked by a bear AND if the product works you will be notified by a happy me. Otherwise, assume that I have not been bear mugged OR I am quite unable to contact you due to circumstances way beyond my control. PS: I have no desire to test this product so do not expect me to provoke a bear to do so."

By Joseppiefrom Austin, Texas
"I've never had to use this and God-willing, I never will.
The UDAP Bear Spray is a larger than life pepper sprayer that boasts a 30 foot shooting length. If I had a bear charging at me, this is exactly what I would want in the last 30 feet between myself and the bear. The handy holster makes it always ready to grab right off my belt or fanny pouch."

UDAP #12 Bear Spray,June 1, 2008
By bearfoot1from Payson,Az.
"The product has not been used yet, But I just got back from bear hunt in Canada, and I felt more secure having it, and I had at least 4 bears ( one night), within 12 yards of my stand and none tried to join me, so I did not use it and thats why it only got 4 stsrs. Its small enough to hang from bow holder and easy to carry in backpack"

Haven't had to use it yet...,February 11, 2008
By Fortun8from Colorado
"I feel allot more comfortable carrying this with me, as I don't carry a gun when I bow hunt. I haven't had to use it yet, but I tell you what, I am glad I have it.
It's light enough that it's not uncomfortable to carry, and with a little practice, you can draw it pretty quick.
I don't bowhunt without it..."

Untried but gives me a sense of security,January 15, 2008
By flipinsactofrom Sacramento, CA
"Maybe it's the largeness of the can of spray that makes me feel "secure" in bear country. I carry it on my person; on my belt...not in my backpack or jacket. It's always on my side, across from my handgun and knife. Only thing I didn't like was the elastic belt loop. I think it would be more secure if the belt loop was a heavier cordura material, or ballistic plastic type. The snap also seemed to come undone more often than I liked, especially when hiking through the brush. Just hope I never have to use it."

This works!!,October 8, 2007
By Rayzorpfrom Verona, NJ
"I decided to to go hunting in black bear country. As luck would have it, first day out a huge one decided to follow me. No matter what I did, it would not leave me alone!! Finally it got way to close for comfort, two seconds and one blast later, it was off running back into the woods. I am so glad I got this. Never leave home without it.."
