Wa State Moose Raffle Tag Punched
« on: November 04, 2013, 12:32:04 PM »
 I am so happy to say I finally found a bull, (with a lot of help from several people) that was worthy of the tag in my pocket. I had waited a long time for a WA moose tag and wanted to make the best of it holding out for a B&C bull or nothing. To say I am happy is such an understatement! I carried my Mathews every day and had 2 good bulls both under 30 yards, but I wasn't convinced either would make minimum. I'm sorry to say I didn't get it done with the bow as I reached for a muzzle loader after locating the bull in a patch of thinned timber. Talk about noisy! There was a cow and 2 other bulls with him not to mention some deer above in the timber. I wasn't going to mess around and loose the opportunity.   
 My first attempt of posting a story crashed my computer so I'm going to make this short and sweet with a teaser pic. I'm about out of time at work today but I'll be back with more.
