• Moose are one of the largest game animals in America that you may get a chance to hunt. It is truly a once in a lifetime experience to take a moose. I have been guiding moose hunts since '99. Including hunts myself, I have helped harvest 39 moose in that time. In June 2012, I finished 2nd in the World (Maine) Invitatioal Moose Calling Championship and tried again in 2015 for a 3rd place finish.
Generally, we will spend time calling and searching for moose in cuts. The moose will be looking for love, food, drink and a place to rest. We may walk a short distance or we may hunt close to the vehicles, the choice is yours.
If you would like a more traditional hunt, be advised that a moose harvested deep in the forest takes a lot of time and effort to retrieve. We will often hunt in areas we can still get a jeep or 4 wheeler in to assist with retrieval.
I guide in WMDs 7, 8, 4 & 1 regularly and have guided other WMDs as well.
Please note the Maine moose hunt is a lottery hunt.

• We offer Maine deer hunts, big woods trophy hunts and one on one hunts. All of our hunts are limited to three (3) on one unless discussed in advance. Hunts are generally in WMD 7 and 8. Here the deer population took a hit several years ago. With mild winters and hunting pressure down over the last few years, deer populations are coming back. Deer hunts are from stands and blinds, with some stalking. All stands are set over natural areas, and trails.
All of our hunts are customized to you and your party.
There will be no other hunters / parties guided during the time you have booked.
From $1,200.00 to $1,300.00

• In 2016 I secured my first lease of 9000 acres and set 10 bait sites. We had a successful season with all 5 of my hunters seeing bear. Two of them harvested and 1 miss while the others only saw sows with cubs. I'm now leasing around 12000a and have access to other property if needed, however I only will take up to 7 hunters (not including 1 on youth day).
Our hunters will have 2 bait sites to hunt. Generally a treestand on one and a ground blind at the other.
As for the 2019 bear hunt, I have unexpected openings. Only 3 of my hunters will be returning this year due to different reasons. As of 4/20 /19 I believe there are currently 3 openings.
