Moose decoy

[MLBowhunting]

Ok well it's that time of year again.  I am offering up my Montana decoy to any lucky moose hunter that wants to use her.  I think this makes year 4 or 5 of passing her around.

Quality offer.       

I just wish I had a reason to borrow it.

My son drew a Douglas A late any moose.
Will the decoy be useful??  The rut should be over by Nov.

Congrats on the tag. Rut is a non factor in Nov and you should pray for some fresh snow to cut tracks. We had a blast tracking them last year Thanksgiving week on my Selkirk tag. A decoy may or may not help. They can be curious at times and run like a track star others in my experience. Good luck to your son on his quest for a dream bull. My son and I had a blast and made some new friends along the way.

By November start looking around clear cuts that have grown back some browse.  3-6+ year old cuts on the south facing slope would be a good place to start looking for.  If you can find some with a creek going through that's even better.

If you know where some moose wintering yards are, they will be pretty close by in Nov.  They usually use the same areas for a couple winters.

We found them to like the commercially thinned timber areas as well as the older units with red brush late in Nov. You will find lots of help here and don't be afraid to talk with the local F&W officer or USFS guys for info. They were helpful to us.

I used her a couple years ago. She'll do the trick.
