Congrats, thats a great looking Moose.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

nice bull. got a story for it?
"Right now, I am thinking that If my grandmother was here, she would be lecturing me about how there are poor people in Africa, that would just love to have a Ruger, I would just say "Great, granny, lets just ship all the Rugers to Africa!"

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

Way to go Gus, congrats on a awsome OIL hunt, I hope you took loads of pics to look at for years to come.

Well Brian will get his this week, I am prepared to take it down to the last day looking for the right one, although I did have the crosshairs on the back of the head of a calf this last weekend. Good thing my finger isn't itchy, I think M-Ray would have given me an atomic wedgie had I pulled the trigger.

Great looking bull, glad to see you got it done, I like the front swords on him, good palms too.  What was the spread?

Awesome Alpinegus, first the great goat, now a moose. If that was me, I would have to have someone pinch me to wake me up.

Gus'
A beautiful bull! But where's the story? Lets see some more photos too.
Also, I do believe Cisco and Roger have yet to tag-out in the Selkirk!

Good luck to all that remain.

They must be hunting rather than posting, I haven't seen any updates from them.
