Congrats on your tag!!! I saw a solid low to mid 160s type ram from the river the other day. Seven other rams but he was by far the best... Good luck!!

Is this it, only 11 tags this year? :bash: We had 20 last year :dunno:
This is a light year compared to last, hopefully we will add a few more in the next couple months.
Good luck to all the tag holders!!!

Pope, if you don't mind me asking, how did your Moose score? I see 7 points to a side, forked fronts so you got that for paddle length. I'm hoping to take mine with a bow, so am trying to get better at judging Moose. Paddle width on the left is around 9" I'd guess. Hard to judge the right side for width, also hard to judge total width from this picture.
Post by: PA BEN on July 22, 2009, 05:31:13 PM
Post by: popeshawnpaul on July 22, 2009, 06:02:42 PM
Palm lengths -30" & 29"
Palm Widths - 9" & 9"
outside spread - 44.5"
beam mass -7" & 7"
points - 7 & 8 pts
Total: 150.5".
I think it would net 148" or so? The interesting question is whether the split brows in the front will count or the one side is considered a drop tine? I think it's split brows the way I read how to score because it comess off the front and then bends down. It would be an interesting question for a scorer. One of these days I'll put down the wine glass and get out a real tape and get accurate 1/8th measurements. :brew:

I'm sleeping OK, but yeah, daylight hours has me pretty consumed with thoughts of Moose. Especially since I just got my Canadian from last year back from the Taxidermist last night. I will get pics of the mount up tomorrow, turned out pretty good. Will be spending this weekend scouting more of my Moose area.

The list is still looking weak, we need more OIL tag holders.
With the number of new members since last year I would have thought we would have increased the amount of OIL drawn members as well. :dunno:

Ballpark gameplan
Goat archery Sep 1-5
Elk 8-14/15 (7 days then I’m done ill get drawn again)
Goat rifle 15-oct 1 (hopefully I can get it done/lots of scouting)
Moose 1-Nov 30
The thing I’ve been struggling with is scouting time, I have been spending all of my time lately with goats and elk (same area) and have not done much at all with the moose which has got me a little worried.
Post by: huntnphool on August 14, 2009, 10:33:25 AM
10 for both goat and moose
Your parents started applying for you at 9? You passed the test pretty early, congrats.

I wouldn't lose any sleep over the lack of scouting for moose. By Nov. 1st all but maybe a couple tag holders will be tagged out so you will likely have all kinds of guys offering to let you know where they went and saw. The leaves will be falling off the trees so looking through them will be much easier, and about that time of year the bulls start grouping up together again, making them easier to locate as well. Last year the later it got the more bulls we started spotting. A lot of the Gov. tag moose holders didn't even start hunting until Nov, there is a reason for that so relax, you will be fine :twocents: ;)

:yeah:
With that in mind, as well as the fact that you can essentially hunt the entire season, I would not settle on a goat by October 1 if you haven't find a trophy yet. Keep hunting into October, you will definitely be able to find a bull moose come November.

Shane, I haven't had a chance to get back over since I scouted in August. I really appreciate the info though. I will hit that area first when I go over next week. My son is playing high school football so I have to catch his game Friday night before I go over after. As important as this hunt of a life time is I gotta keep my priorities straight. It's killing both of us he can't join in. I will hunt until the following Friday then go back in November if I don't find a big one. I will keep you posted on the hunt. In case you can't tell I am not the most gifted computer guy. Good luck to all in your hunting adventures.

holly crap dobby please tell me who you paid lol i want to give them a call did u do any good in the rim rock with the bull tag? i had the same tag that you had but time got short on me and i shot a calf only my second elk with a bow we seen a toad behind conrad medows a 350-360 bull and a few other small ones but so hot nothing was wanting to talk to us.
ill let you know who to pay when i find out i still need that sheep tag :chuckle:
we had bulls talking the last week of the season we had fun and called in a few got busted by some dandy bulls. it was hard to shoot cows after being on bulls everyday and the late hunt for cows is way to fun but if i would of had a gimmy shot i probly would of done the same the last few days. i was suprised we dident see any elk behind conrad when we were hikeing in for my goat hunt we herd em though both mornings
