Best of luck to you and the missus!

From personal experience being able to shoot one that close to the house would be a blessing.  Nothing prepares you for the size of a moose until the first time you walk up on one on the ground!

Right on! Congratulations! Man he is almost black too isn't he! Did you save the hide at all? I'm just thinking that one could be tanned and look great! You know, for around $1000...
