49 Degree North Moose 08 (huntnphool)
« on: October 06, 2008, 10:35:47 AM »
Well guys and gals I'm down in the count but still battling off the foul balls. The hunt started off behind schedule so we ended up getting on the road later than expected. I have to get some work done so cant post a big long story all at once, I will go a little at a time with some pics.

 I have had a blast so far and can tell you that this moose hunting is addicting. Anyhow, I have lots of pics and have taken notes so the story may be long and drawn out but the ride should be fun ;)

For anyone that hasn't seen the movie, watch this clip 
and pay close attention to "Ralph" running from the bad guys and shooting the gun over his shoulder without looking at his target. Now picture a 140 class bull moose pissed off as hell, seeing Pope waving his arms and white lens at him and Pope running to the truck taking pics over his shoulder the same way, LMFAO :lol4:, it was priceless. Waid and I followed behind watching the whole thing, Pope even got pics of us in the background, Shawn can you post them on here for everyone to get a chuckle :chuckle:.

This pic is of the sunrise on the way over, more to come later, enjoy.

The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Yeah, I got about 20 out of focus pictures of nothing from trying to run from a moose and shoot its picture over my head as I ran the other way.  I did manage to turn and snap a couple just before he ran me all the way into my truck.  I don't want to hear any complaints if it's fuzzy or slightly out of focus.   :rolleyes:  I've never called in such a pissed off moose before.  He didn't want a piece of my GMC truck though.  Pictures to come tonight...

I had a head start but all I had to do is stay in front of you ;) Thanks for hittting the remote lock when you did!
