First OIL tag for me. If anyone is willing to give me any pointers it would be greatly appreciated. My son drew in 2007 so it’s not my first go around, but I am far from experienced.
Thanks!

Go Eastbound. :chuckle:

I lived near there for 16+ years. What is the area you're looking at. You can PM me if you want.

The tag is good for all area between Canada and the Coleville reservation between the Okanogan river and the Columbia river.

I know some spots that hold moose and couple area nobody every targets them in the unit. Pm me

Couple shed pictures from that unit. Good bulls in that unit.
-
I really like the snow bull
-
Awesome sheds! Always good to know the quality in the unit. Good luck Buckjunkie! Wish I had some advice for you.
-
Thanks Duckhunter. This tag looks better all the time. Guys on here have been real helpful. They are willing to give up all kinds of info...it’s not like elk and deer spots. No one is likely to draw the tag next year anyway.
As of now I have spent three days in the unit. I have only seen one bull moose, but I am mainly running the main roads learning the unit. I have barely scratched the surface after putting 450 miles on dirt roads. Lots of timber since the Forest Service doesn’t log anymore. I’m sure things will pick up in September when the rut kicks in and by late November it should be real good when leaves are off and the snow flies.
-
Congratulations! keep us posted on the progress...

That was my #1 choice, Nice Draw! :tup:
-
Cool hope you find a stud! :tup:
-
There is a lot of willow in the burned areas so frequent them and do a lot of driving and looking. Covering ground during prime time in that unit is the name of the game. Do some calling during the middle of the day when the moose are not active, and you never know where you might find them. Good luck!
-
Hirshey got her moose up there. She might be someone worth talking to.

Their is also a local out of Republic on this forum who has been know to help people from time to time, his handle is goldminer I believe.

Thanks guys. I will be in the unit next week on a family vacation. I plan on spending some more time scouting.
Thanks again!
-
Just got back from our vacation. Took two drives checking out moose spots. Very Smokey from all the fires. One area we wanted to get into was closed for fire danger. Hope to get back over soon.
I’ll keep you all posted!

I drove over Sunday and stayed for two days with Goldminer AKA John G. It turned out that friends of mine helped him on a sheep hunt five years ago so he wanted to re-pay the favor. John and his family are great. We spent two days driving and hiking in some of his favorite moose spots. It was busy in the woods with the holiday weekend, but we did manage to see a cow and his friend told us about a good bull close to one of John’s favorite spots. I’ll be heading over to set up Camp on September 28th for the October 1 opener. I’ll try and post updates during the hunt.
Thanks again to all who gave me advice on the unit.

Good luck, man. Keep us posted and take more pictures!!

Good luck man. Find the willows with the tops chewed off :tup:

I talked to my friend today Buckjunkie, he hasn't seen any moose at all.

It’s been slow. As the rut picks up I hope the spotting does too. Headed over on the 28th for a week. I’ll have five friends with me so I hope we can find something good.

Well, we spent nine days in the unit and saw 19 moose, 10 bulls and nine cows and calves. We only called a couple in, but I only have video of one. I tried to post the video, but it’s too big. If someone can tell me how to get my video posted I think you’ll like it.

This is a great unit. I’m either going to kill a giant or eat the tag😄

First off, I want to thank all of you who gave me tips on where to hunt. The list is too long so I will just say I had tips from Mt. Hull to Elbow Lake. I will share what I learned with anyone who draws in the future.
My moose hunt started when a friend who was attending the draw texted me saying I better have some vacation saved. Of course he kept me hanging while I was going crazy hoping I drew a sheep tag.
When I found out it was a moose tag I was elated. Within a couple weeks my wife and I were camping in the unit trying to learn what the different areas looked like. We put 450 miles on dirt roads only spotting one small bull. The East side of the unit (101/105) looked more "Moosey" to me so we spent most of our time East of the Kettle Crest. I found my way back for another day of scouting without seeing a Moose. A friend contacted me and said a guy he helped on a Sheep hunt five years ago was willing to help and help he did. John G. AKA Goldminer invited me back over spending the weekend at his place. He drove me to a bunch of different spots, but still only spotted one small bull and a cow.
Opening day found us camped up Hall Creek. I had three friends at first but it grew to 6 plus. Occasionally John and his family came around. We hunted for seven days spotting 19 Moose. 10 bulls and the rest were cows and calves. One bull on day two was a good one probably scoring low book for Boone & Crockett. I decided to turn him down. The video is posted earlier in this thread and I had quite a few comments. I was comfortable at that time since John was saying the bigger bulls are easier to find when the snow flies. His only caution was if we can get to them. Truer words were never spoken.
I had deer tags in Arizona and Colorado. I am trying to burn 20 years worth of points across six states before I am too old to make good use of them. I left October 20th for Arizona. Four days of scouting and 10 days of hunting killing a mid 170's on the last day. Colorado was good. I shot a nice 3x4 on my third day that scored in the mid 160's. I was gone 24 days straight and I had to get home to my wife knowing I still had a once in a lifetime tag for Moose in Washington.
I left for Republic the day after Thanksgiving. John invited me and Jason to stay at his place. This turned out to be a lot of fun. It seems like John knows everyone around Republic. He was constantly contacting friends to see if they had seen a Moose. I had a great tip from Jonathon_S on a good bull over Sherman Pass. It was perfect...we had a fresh dusting of snow and so we went to check for tracks. We drove the area and walked through the woods without finding anything fresh. Since we were over the pass we decided to check out a few more areas and thats when it happened. We ran across a guy looking for a Christmas Tree and stopped to ask if he had seen any Moose. He looked at us kinda funny and said yaaahhh. We asked if he would tell us where and he said he didnt want to because it was his White Tail spot. After reassuring him we wouldn't tell anyone he gave us the location. We drove straight there. There were fresh tracks, but we didnt see anything.
That same day John's two sons Derek and Zach were out hunting deer. Derek spotted a good bull in the morning and Zach saw a good bull in the evening. This was closer to Republic so we pounded the two areas for three days without finding anything more than a cow and a small bull. The tracks were there but the Moose seemed to vanish. The bull was on private almost two miles away. It was an amazing spot by Jason on 10 power binos that took us 30 minutes to confirm with the spotting scope.
That night Jason said we need to go back over Sherman and check that spot out again so Wednesday the 28th we headed over early. The road was nasty and everything was fogged in. I was starting to think I might eat the tag. We got close to the spot and started seeing a few Moose tracks. As Jason drove along I peered out my side looking into the fog. I was shocked when I spotted the sillhouette of a bull at the edge of visibility. Jason stopped the truck. At this point I was willing to shoot anything with forked fronts. I looked at the bull with my binoculars and thought I could see forks. He looked about 45" wide so I decided to shoot him.
I stepped out of the truck and pushed two round into the magazine of my 300 RUM. I attempted to rest on a tree but a couple limbs blocked my view. I decided to shoot off hand. He was looking our way with his body quarteringto my right. I shot high front left shoulder and his back legs folded. He spun left. jason said he let out a moan, but I couldn't hear. I just shot a 300RUM. Now I could see his right shoulder so I shot again and he collapsed. I let out a yell and Jason Jumped out of the truck. As we walked up to see the bull Jason was saying he’s pretty big. Five other moose were now visible including two bulls. As we approached I couldn't beleive his right side. It was awesome. I started to brush snow off his left and Jason said he's still alive. I stepped back for a moment, but he was done. When I brushed the rest of the snow off his left side I couldn't beleive what I saw. He was a monster. Dumb luck or just good fortune...I am truly humbled by the sheer size of this bull. I saw many trail cam pics from tipsters. At least five were huge bulls, but I had never seen a trail cam pic of this bull untill last night. A friend knows a Moose guy named DJ that sent a pic. I'll ask Josh to post it after I finish the story.
I had the bull scored yesterday by a guy I know who is an official SCI scorer. He will easily be the #2 all time Shiras. The largest Shiras ever recorded in the lower 48. He scored in the mid 490's. I had him scored SCI because Boone & Crockett does not recognize point length. This bull has over 235" of tines.
Thanks to everyone who contrubuted to this hunt. I especially want to thank Jason Parlari, John Gianukakis, Cody Davis, Martin Greenhaw, Tim Argo, Josh Prouty, Brent Lawson, Jed McDaniels who all took time off to come over and help. John's sons Derek and Zach who were always looking for me. I want to thank Penny, John's wife, for her hospitality and excellent meals and putting up with us. The many tipsters for taking time out of your life to help me out.
Not a sexy hunting story, but as we all say. I'd rather be lucky than good!

Here’s the trail cam pic Jim mentioned. The length of the points on this thing is crazy.

Thank You! It was foggy when I shot it so walking up to it was amazing! When we showed the bull to the local that gave us the tip he said he never saw that bull before. I just got really lucky!

Amazing he doesn't have broken points with those lengths. Should be a great SCI scorer. :tup:
edit: just read through the last few pages and saw it's been SCI scored. :tup:

Great job on the bull! And you got to see in person, the archery bull we got this year as well. I wasn't able to make it down there to see your bull. Brian also green scored our bull but he must have mis-calculated as it actually fell more in the range that I scored it at to begin with. Either way, a couple of fantastic bulls for sure! I will get in touch with you at some point when I get time to check it out.

Ok, we aren’t far away
-
This is my screensaver shot

Too bad the score doesnt count antler point length. Would that be a decent Alaska moose?
-
Sci does account for all tine length. Should be #2 in the world after drying period

I had my moose scored by a Master Measurer today. It scored 504 7/8” which makes it the new world record Shiras Moose!

Oh snap!!! Congrats Jim!

Right on! Way to go!!

Simply amazing specimen of a moose. Congratulations on a true OIL harvest.
