I came accross this moose while bear hunting. About an hour after watching the moose I shot a bear. Sunday was a great day.

I wish I could take credit for the great photos but my buddy and fellow member (DBZona) that was with me at the time took the pictures. He has a very nice camera.

It's already hard enough to get some sleep, tossing and turning dreaming about moose and my upcoming hunt.  Then you post a pic like that...?  HOLY $#(*&*&&#^$*(@@@)!  I call dibs!

great moose - congrats on the bear.  I took pictures Saturday with the 35 mm of a nice bull moose, but doesn't hold a chance against this monster.

" 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

He very well could be 50''. I was guessing 45" give or take a few.

Its a 50" min in the area I'm hunting in AK or 4 brow tines. I would let him go, just to close to call. i would say 48" but maybe 50"

Crazy nice bull for WA!
