Some guys were asking rifle or bow. It started bow and ended rifle. Chashed him for 3 days with bow and had him around 40 yardsbut couldn't get a shot. Then 3 days later he was broad side at 236 and I 7 maged him twice.

Great bull Ryan! Its about perfect. Sounds like you guys had fun getting him all packed out the next day! Its a good thing you are as big as that moose to pack out that head and cape, couldnt be to light  :IBCOOL:
Title: Re: Selkirk Moose '08
Post by: burnhamrandr on October 21, 2008, 08:21:13 AM
It took 3 of us 9 hours to cut him up and get him out. I am 6'7' and 310 and that moose made me look small. They are big animals

I can't emagine those guys diy in Alaksa for one of those big *censored*s up north by themselves. Those guys are hard!!!!

Thanks for the PM Ryan, that is a wall hanger for sure. I am told that the long tines mean its a younger bull but to be honest I think I prefer the way they look when the points are like that. Popes are the same way and make it look much more impresive in my opinion :dunno: 

Congrats again Brother, thats one to be proud of.
Title: Re: Selkirk Moose '08
Post by: Ridgerunner on October 21, 2008, 08:59:24 AM
Great bull, what was the spread.  I think the points are pretty cool too.

Post by: WAmuleyHunter on October 21, 2008, 09:04:00 AM
awesome bull!!! i cant wait to draw one of those tags before i die!!!! i really like the look of that bull. I dont know a bunch about them score wise but man he would taste good, and look good up on the wall. Congrats!!  Hunt- hurry up and put one of these big boys on the ground. I cant wait any longer.  Just cause i did this to you a couple years ago on the raffle hunt. :)

You're welcome Ry,  the pack out was the worst but the experience to see your buddy bag a true trophy was well worth it.  236 yard down, way deep down shot right on the money.  We got the second shot on video.  Manny

Great Job and nice looking bull.

I just got back from Wyoming and I'll be off next Friday for my moose hunt in the Selkirk and will most likely be "doing it myself". I done several elk by myself but looks like this will be a new adventure for an out of shape older guy.

Any advice for the Selkirk of where I might start. Everybody has said they are all over the place but some recent info would be great.

Roger

Thanks for the post.  You gotta fine bull.  Good Job and Congrats!!!

I saw a moose rub last weekend.  It wiped out 3 - 10 foot pine trees.  The bark was stripped clean and so were the branches all the way to 6 feet high.
