Two down, many more to go.

I can't wait to hear the details of being chased back to the truck by a 50 incher. :chuckle:

Thanks for the story robodad.

We got ours opening morning. It was 42" wide but no paddles. The guy was 71 and we were limited on where we could go but he was happy with it. Huntingphool,Ridgerunner,Craig,Popeshawnpaul,M-Ray and Wade are here hunting now. They don't have anything down that I know of yet. Pope called in a 50" to Phool and it chased them into the truck.
I drove by that blood spot in the road. See the tire track on the bank behind him :chuckle: Good place to shoot one. That's about the size of the one I called in this morning, It had dubble fronts. I heard this morning finnmans wife shot a good bull.  :dunno: :drool:

Heres a 70 year old with his.  I should have got this story on here before all the other moose stories showed up, the slow season.  Maybe I can get it up while everyonw is waiting for this years version.
Note it made it across the road before dieing.

finnman called I will leave the story up to him but his wife scored this morning with a nice bull, lots of points.  They were packing out meat when I called.  Another one down.  :IBCOOL:  Here is the cellphone pic they sent me.

wow...that looks like a reallllllyyyyyy nice bull. can't wait for the story and the rest of the pics.

:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
