You wouldn't be donating anything to conservation. That's why they do what they do.

It's more about supporting Sheep and the Wild Sheep Foundation in Washington, than spending money on a Moose hunt.

Thats pretty good considering the gov elk tag went for the same price

Moose went for $44k last year.
Was always in the teens it seemed like before that. If there's any moose left for the hunt, we've got some world class shiras bulls in this state. Seems almost logical it would be as much as the elk tag.

True . Wish I had money like that to donate.

I would think a moose tag would be worth a lot more than an elk tag. Elk tags are over the counter while moose tags are draw only and most people will never draw.

[jackelope]

While I agree with you, branch antlered bull tags in quality areas in e-wa are not over the counter, bobcat.

Most hunters would probably be more impressed with a 400 inch bull elk than a 175 inch Shiras moose.

However, the odds of getting a world record moose in Washington are greater than the odds of getting a world record elk.

I'm pretty sure it sold $40k for it last year. Rumor has it that the bull that was taken will be the new state record once its scored.

The guy that bought it last night was the same guy that bid it up last year. He is a friend of a friend,  so I know he has purchased the tag 2 or 3 times in the past 10 years. Both of these guys hunt with the same guide, so he must know where another toad is hiding.

The wife and I had a great time last night, sure wish I had the bank account to bid on some of the things offered.  Had a blast and can't wait till next year!

[Whitpirate]

I had a great time and almost got that Rocky Mountain deadhead..... then I woke from my slumber and decided the wife would say "you spent what on what?"

Great evening and I highly recommend if you can attend next year you should.  Fantastic organization and commitment to conservation.

Was a good cause , defiantly a couple of whales out there but they give a bunch . pretty cool to see Klumper donate that 7k rifle . Whit and I put a couple sheep back on the mountain but the bidding was out of my range on most of those goodies .
