Guided Service:
Bigelow Mountain Guide Service provides a Maine black bear hunt like no other. With bait sites established for over 45 years, owner and sole guide, Kevin Tiberi guarantees that you will be hunting in active bait sites. If you are not entirely satisfied with your site, Kevin already has another site open for you to take over. Furthermore, Bigelow Mountain Guide Service doesn’t offer a five day hunt like other outfitters, it offers a six day hunt! So, if you are looking for a personal, easy going, and enjoyable hunting experience, this guide service is for you! Guided black bear hunts take place in the Bigelow Mountain Range, located in Stratton, Maine. During your hunt, experience is on your side, as Kevin has over 30 years experience in this area. As an additional service, free of charge, Kevin will quarter and freeze the bear meat for you, if you so choose.
