Didn't want saltwater accidentally on him so he rode in the back. Mike did a nice job on him.  Quad, the story was from 2012.  Yukon moose, fly-in horseback hunt with my dad.

Included a field pic.  I'll post a pic when I get him up on the wall....  :yike:

He is currently on the floor taking up the space of a reclining rocker   :yike:  while I figure out where to put the screw to hang him....

Anyone thinking of getting a moose shoulder mount, I highly recommend you get it with removable antlers!

Definitely.  The house doesn't work with the moose, so now we have to remodel.   :)

Beauty!  Both moose and mount!  Bringing it in the house like that really shows how gigantic they are.  But for how big it is, you got the right mount for the space. 

BTW, treated a few friends to the last of the shrimp tonight.  Yes, they are very good friends....   :chuckle:

22 pounds in the freezer this year.   :drool:  A friend of my wife said it looks like he is sticking his head through the wall to see what's for dinner.   :chuckle:  Still trying to figure out a name for him, Snuffleupagus? I think Kelli is also prety happy he was a northern moose and doesn't have an 18 inch dewlap hanging down in her face.   ;)

I did a freezer reorg last week and discovered 103 pounds of moose still in one of them, yikes, better make some summer sausage.   :drool:

Haha, 103 lbs...?!?! 

I judge my year by the contents of my freezer, but when you can hide 103 lbs of moose meat for 3 years you are taking harvesting to another level.    :chuckle:
