Title: Wyoming moose unit 24
Post by: Buckblaster on June 19, 2015, 03:46:01 PM: I drew the tag after 15 years of applying. I've never hunted in that area, so if anyone knows that unit and has suggestions for good places to find moose, please send me a PM. Thanks in advance.

You will not have any problem finding moose.

The local gamey there is Bubba Haley out of the Pinedale office. you can probably call him and get some intel. I will call a few of my buddies from Pinedale,Big Piney, and Bondurant and let you know what I come up with.

Post by: Buckblaster on October 09, 2015, 11:39:46 AM: I saw 9 bulls in 5 days of the hunting, and Brutus here was the biggest. Came home with 300 lbs of boned out meat. Thanks to those who gave input for an area that I had never been before. That was hands down the best hunt I have ever been on.

Post by: WAcoueshunter on October 10, 2015, 09:30:45 AM: That's a great bull Buckblaster! I was in and around your unit last week. We saw about 10 bulls, but yours is bigger than anything I saw. Lots of young bulls, we saw more moose this year than our prior three trips, they seem to be doing well.

Post by: Buckblaster on October 10, 2015, 07:35:17 PM: Got this guy in the bottom of Sjhoberg Creek in N. Cottonwood, in the willow bottoms on day five of the hunt at daylight. Thanks for your input WAcoueshunter for a unit that I have never been to before. I passed on few smaller bulls in the unit, but knew this one was a keeper when I spotted him. Again, thanks for your input.

That's great! Cool spot, we hunted that area hard a few years back with H deer tags. Think there were more bulls than bucks when we were there! I've hunted that general area 4 times now since 2009, and can't remember seeing one with paddles and width like yours. Well done! :tup:

Post by: finnman on October 15, 2015, 03:03:05 PM: Congrats on the bull! That's very nice, when we were in the Bighorns hunting them last year we saw one bull bigger than that in 6 days, so nice job!! :tup:
