We are pleased to offer the services of Shepard Hunting Company, located in Northern Maine. Shepard Hunting offers both spring and fall bear hunts, and moose hunts for those fortunate enough to draw a tag in our Maine State lottery. This excellent outfitter offers fantastic hunting for spring and fall bear, with both hound and bait hunts offered. Spring hunts are offered on privately-held tracts of land where competition is non-existent. Bait hunts are provided on lands where Shepard Hunting leases exclusive use of bait sites, ensuring that your hunt will essentially be a private-land hunt. Hunts are of six-day duration, and transportation to/from baits sites provided.

Your host, Ryan Shepard, brings many years of experience in the bear-hunting business to the table. His attention to detail is second to none and he places an emphasis on safety while providing a world-class hunting experience. Ryan is realistic and candid in his description of your hunting experience while maintaining an understanding of any existing physical limitations that hunters may have. Hunting is done from tree stands and ground blinds as preferred by the hunter. All related equipment, tree stands, vehicles, bear extrication gear, etc is well-maintained and always at hand. Shepard Hunting Company offers a professional atmosphere where women hunters or guests are welcome. A gentleman’s atmosphere is the norm here and good conduct by all is expected.

Lodging and meals are provided at one of Maine’s most historical lodges, with all amenities and services provided by a warm gregarious staff. Meals are home cooked, all you can eat and of excellent quality. Special dietary needs can be accommodated with previous notice.
