I got to mark one of my dreams off my “bucket list” in June 2015 with Shattuck Creek Outfitters. I had always wanted to take a black bear with a bow so myself and six others booked a spring bear hunt with Amon. This was definitely a well run operation and Amon made the hunt memorable. The scenery was beautiful and the service was more than perfect. The only thing that was not good, that Amon had no control over, was the weather which was hotter than usual for the first of June. This kept the bears from being active but bears were seen by our group everyday. The accommodations was by no means roughing it but you are out in the wilderness. I elected to stay in the wall tent which was comfortable and I think the best sleep I had in awhile. You don’t go hungry and the food is excellent. You can fish during the day and hunt in the evening. The stands and bait stations are well placed and not difficult to get to. I harvested a multi phase bear before the hunt was over and Amon and his crew took care of the skinning and preparing of the hide. I was impressed with the service, the area, and Amon that I booked an archery elk hunt. If you want a good hunt with good service and a down to earth guide then check into Shattuck Creek Outfitters.
