Note of Thanks

Dear Mac

I am most sorry that I did not contact you sooner. I want to thank you and your staff for making my week, spring bear hunting, most memorable. I had a great time, and I am already planning for next spring.

I felt most comfortable at your camp, and it was beyond what I expected. It's always great to be surprised rather than disappointed. The desire that you have, and instilled in your help, to make the client successful, is beyond my imagination.

Shooting the bear was like dessert to me. What was important was the meal, and I certainly enjoyed the company of your and your staff.

God willing that we have our health, I will be back.

Many thanks,
Emil Tillona

Whats up Mac? How was your fall hunt?I am planning on coming back in the fall of 06 with some of the guys that were there the last time including Alby. I have talked him into returning with me along with Jeff. What is the best week you would recommend for us to pick. I'm thinking probably six guys. I can't wait to come back - you guys are the best not only for the huntiheng but the warm hospitality. I consider you guys great friends. My hunt at Fundy Outfitters was my first experience at hunting outside of NJ and now I am hooked.

Thanks again for the great hunts and the all around great times.

Your Friend,

Dave House

P.S How did Adam make out in the Fall after leaving his Bow at home?

Dear Mac & Ruth,

I just wanted to send a note of thanks to you. The "Shawns Archery" bear hunt that we were on was as good as it gets. As you know, it was the first time that I or my son Matt have been on a guided hunt. The accommodations were great and the way you took care of us was outstanding.

The attention to the details both at the camp and in the woods by you and your guides is what made for a great time. You made us feel like "old friends" not clients.

Ruth, Matt wants to know if you can mail him some homemade rolls and bread? Just kidding, but he did want me to tell you that he'll miss your cooking. I think that he gained a pound or two. I know that I did.

I'm not sure when we'll be back but you can be sure that we will.

Again, thank you for everything you did for us.

Thanks,
John & Matt

Hi! I thought I would send you a picture of my bear and I. I just got it back from the taxidermist yesterday. When Loren, Jamie, Jeff, and I came up this May, we had the time of our lives! The food was excellent, the accommodations were great and Hunting service was top notch! Even though Jeff and Jamie didn't get to bring a bear home with them, they both agreed that they wouldn't have changed a thing on our hunt. We all got a chance to see bears at our stands and Jamie and Jeff also got to see moose and coyote. When I picked my bear up at the taxidermist, he was very impressed with the color of it. He said that everyone that came in and saw it gave lots of compliments. I personally was very excited to get the opportunity to harvest a bear with a bow. I was very impressed with the accommodations. Our cabins felt like home away from home. As soon as I got back, I got together with my local archery pro shop owner and made plans for another hunt. Jamie and I will both be coming back next October to give fall hunts a shot along with my wife (who plans to shoot the biggest bear in camp) and the rest of the group we put together. We can't wait! several of us are already counting down the days. Well, I'm sure you're busy so I'll end now. Be sure to say hi to Ruth and Al for us and we will see you next fall. Thanks again for everything!

Dear Mac,

Just wanted to let you know that I had a great time hunting with you again. As you know I've been hunting at other places in the past but Joe and I have found a perfect spot! I'm still disappointed I didn't get that nice one this year. I had my shot and blew it! On the 5th night, Hillard and Al put me in a nice stand, and a nice bear came in. I had a most enjoyable and heart pounding good time watching him for at least 30 or 40 minutes, climbing the tree for donuts and reaching for the honey can on the barrel. I just wish he was bigger. He would have been nice for a lot of hunters, but I'll wait and get my "monster" yet!

You have a perfect place, Mac, good lodging, the food is superb - my compliments to Ruth - the guides are great and the atmosphere around your place makes the trip up there all worthwhile.

My best wishes to all your guides, you (Mac) and your wife (Ruth). Enclosed is my deposit for next year's hunt. Again, Mac, I'll let you have a definite date as soon as I can, but I'll be up and looking forward to it. Let me know if you are going to the Edison Show and I'll stop by.

You're all great - Best wishes to everyone.

Mac,

Just a quick note to thank you for the hunt. It was an incredible experience, and I hope to be able to enjoy it again next year. I will be talking with some people here to set up another trip. I made it home without incident and spent all day yesterday at my desk trying to work, but only thinking about bears.

My taxidermist was very impressed with my bear and suggested that he make a trip with me to see you.

When I arrived at the border I realized that I had forgotten the arrow that we went through so much effort to retreive. I was hoping that I could get you to send it to me. I left it sitting outside on the picnic table right next to the cabin I stayed in. I am sure that someone found it on Friday morning.

Thanks again for a great hunt and I'll be in touch soon to book for next year.

Mac and Ruth:

I want to thank each of you again for a great week. The only problem encountered was the long, long drive there and back home. Your hospitality and camp were excellent. I will be quite happy to recommend you to my hunting friends. Hopefully, we will be able to join you again for a future hunt or maybe just for a relaxing getway with the family.

Ruth, I know you must be tired, but I cannot brag enough of your culinary skills. Thanks again for the great meals.

Say hello to all for me and keep in touch. when things slow down drop me a note or email and let me know how things are going. I will be sure to pass it on.

Take care and thanks again for some wonderful memories.
