49 Degrees North Early Bull Moose

I agree wait for a bull that you will be happy looking at the rest of your life.  Don't shoot something small the first day just because its an OIL tag.  Take whatever time you have to get something you will be happy with.  Took me a couple of trips to find my bull(even with 6 month old twins at home).  At the time it caused a little stress on the homefront but over time that has long since faded and everyday I get to look at the bull I had dreamed of getting.  Still plenty of nice bulls in that unit, time to go find one!!!!

  I drew with a buddy on my bull moose tag, he killed the first bull I called in for him, prob a 1.5-2,5 year old dink.  He regrets it every time he looks at it.  Mostly regrets it because I killed a good bull 8 days later.

Shoot what will make you happy.  I  personally like to eat them, more than I like to look at them.  I usually set a date in my mind that says, any legal animal when hunting OIL or guided hunts out of state.  What hurts worse than looking at a small bull.....is looking at an unnotched tag of a once in a lifetime hunt.  I cherish and remember all hunts equally....regardless of the size of the animal.  Heck, some of my most memorable hunts are of the smaller animals. 

Good luck to all the lucky tag holders.  Moose hunting is one of my all time favorite hunts.

This is where I am at. I very much want and look forward to a freezer full of moose meat. My plan going in is to just trust the first instinct I have when an opportunity presents itself and if the bull/encounter gets me excited, I will send it.

Excited for all the moose hunters, there just isn't nothing like it.  One day we say about 4 different bulls and they were getting each other wound up, the size of them is really surreal.  Was even chased out of the woods by a bull one time, exciting but way too close for comfort.  Best of luck and take it all in.

I have to work tell Friday.  Once I get home jumping in the truck and headed to camp, fortunate enough to have my son-in-law setting up camp for me.  I will keep y'all posted
