I can't hold it in any longer......
« on: February 08, 2012, 06:04:54 AM »
I'm going to the Yukon moose hunting!   :tup:

Oh, oh, I'm going to the Yukon moose hunting....  Seven months from yesterday I will be in camp hoping to see that bull of a lifetime.  Let's see, I'd better start exercising, buy new arrows, get shooting more, etc. 

My dad is taking me on a dream hunt before he gets too old to do it with me.  We'll be heading out with Yukon Stone Outfitters to hunt from Sep. 7 to the 17th.

I guess I'll just put in for ghost points for elk this year, a little less competition for you elk hunters.   ;)

You and your Dad should have a blast.  I know calling in and watching my Dad kill his Shiras in Montana this fall over shadows all of my hunts as far as a great memory and experience.
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.
You are never to old to learn something stupid.

Even better is he gets to watch me shoot.   :chuckle:  He's already put a Yukon moose on the wall.

One of my most favorite adventures with my Dad.  We drove up together, travelled in deep together, got the big one, then turned around and came out.   Probably some of the best quality time in high quantity that we ever had.

Having done that hunt I can say with some confidence that it will be a trip of a lifetime! Especially being with your dad. Congrats! That is awesome. What town are you basing out of?

We are driving to Whitehorse then fly in to a horse camp.  Here's what comes up on their website.

Always best to make memories with you father, especially when they can still get out and hunt the big country.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.
