Huge Washington Moose Sheds!
« on: May 06, 2010, 05:20:46 PM »
Here is a set of Monster Moose sheds that were picked up in N.E. Washington this year.
I have not seen these in person but I am being told that it would have about an 58" outside spread.

Split brows or not, would not have passed on him last fall.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Those are awesome sheds.... ;)

Here's another set of Stevens Co sheds picked up in 06 or 07 that was sent on email, not my pic so I blocked out the face.

Those are some dandy moose antlers. Can't wait until I get drawn this year for either the OIL, individual raffle, or the NE big game raffle.

A friend specializes in looking for moose sheds, he has sent me several photos, if I stumble on them I will post. I had an extra moose cape that I was trying to talk him into mounting his best set with, but he never did, he just enjoys finding them. :)

GEEZ LOUISE...
there's a couple giants right there.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

We have seen several moose through the years that I am sure had to be very close to 60". Many of the moose live where it's very heavy cover, it's just hard to find the same moose again, much less find their sheds. :chuckle:

There are a few dedicated shed hunters who are finding 1 to 2 dozen moose sheds a season.  ;)

...I have a HEAD! :DOH:

You just need a big white block head.  You will find sheds like those.  For only $19.99 plus $40,000.00 shipping and handling, you too can have a white block head like these fine shed hunters. 
 :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Ohhhhh..... I have seen those on Ebay but held off buying one because of the shipping and handling...  I guess I will suck it up and get one now... :dunno:
