Title: Nice WA moose
Post by: alwinearcher on August 12, 2013, 03:29:48 PM: I was checking trail cameras over the weekend and stumbled on this bull, sadly I only had my cell phone with me so the pictures kinda suck.

When I got to my trail camera though I had a bunch of video of him on my trail camera.
These are stills off the video so the quality also isnt great

Post by: Hoythunter on August 12, 2013, 04:41:25 PM: Could you do me a favor and send him headed East across the N Idaho border? After all, I'd hate for him to screw up any of your whitetail setups :chuckle:

Title: Re: Nice WA moose
Post by: threedwizard on August 13, 2013, 10:53:26 AM: Is this bull in 204? I hunt west of Republic and have seen a few moose, but not many. Maybe I should start putting in the OIL tags for the next 25+ years and try a tag. HaHa!

Gonna need some GPS Coord's to verify this is a WA bull, Matt... :chuckle:

Thats an awesome moose for Washington.

Post by: huntnnw on August 15, 2013, 03:04:39 AM: I personally handled and helped cape a shiras moose in 2003 from 49 unit that was scored by the taxi I was working with over 190" B&C old asian man drew that tag..never heard of it again.

Post by: RadSav on August 15, 2013, 03:05:38 AM: Wholly Smokes!!! You could make some change auctioning off the GPS cords on that guy :chuckle: That's my #1 dream right there!
Title: Re: Nice WA moose
Post by: huntnnw on August 15, 2013, 03:08:51 AM: I have no doubt theres more than 1 world record shiras in WA...Ive seen 3 absolute giant bulls..bigger than anything I have ever seen harvested. 1 was in the Huck unit and moose season was open! and it was standing on a hillside 100 yards away. 58-62" wide quad brows
Title: Re: Nice WA moose
Post by: boneaddict on August 15, 2013, 07:12:11 AM: I really don't like how B and C judge moose. The system is ripe for a smaller bull to rank way higher than a bigger bull. I wish I had a tag now versus 10 years ago.
