Maybe stick around and share some stuff about yourself and past successful pics, you might meet a few guys and I'm sure there are guys who would love to help out, this is a great community that way for those who are active on here.

I will be back and forth over there as I have family in Spokane. Hit me up and if I am around I will help out. I am sure my brother would do it as well and he lives on the North side of Spokane.I would always pack for moose meat.

Moose are not difficult to pack. As long as you kill them close to the road.true fact!

I killed one in 13, was 100 yards from the truck where it died, still took me 5 hours to get it all in the truck.

My son’s tag is for across the highway, i can’t believe how quick it got here. We’ve been doing tons to prepare and been on six scouting trips now. Have a camp trailer full of supplies stored at a guys place over there already and will be bringing the rest of camp over a few days before season. We Have not seen the one yet, but we have got pictures of a couple from other people that would be worth catching up to. I’m definitely feeling more pressure trying to get my son a decent one than I felt when I had the tag. Hopefully he’s not feeling any of that.
I understand the pressure and I feel like it is kind of normal with OIL tags because you know how rare they are to draw and its your one chance at it. Part of me wants to have lots of encounters and get to fully enjoy the experience but another part of me would love to kill one opening morning and take the pressure off

wait for a good one. I was at Idaho fish and game office Wednesday and Thursday. Saw the gal check 3 bull moose. All were very small.

I agree wait for a bull that you will be happy looking at the rest of your life. Don't shoot something small the first day just because its an OIL tag. Take whatever time you have to get something you will be happy with. Took me a couple of trips to find my bull(even with 6 month old twins at home). At the time it caused a little stress on the homefront but over time that has long since faded and everyday I get to look at the bull I had dreamed of getting. Still plenty of nice bulls in that unit, time to go find one!!!!:yeah: I drew with a buddy on my bull moose tag, he killed the first bull I called in for him, prob a 1.5-2,5 year old dink. He regrets it every time he looks at it. Mostly regrets it because I killed a good bull 8 days later.

Good luck to all the lucky tag holders. Moose hunting is one of my all time favorite hunts. :tup: :tup:
Post by: vandeman17 on September 29, 2025, 11:56:12 AM
Shoot what will make you happy. I personally like to eat them, more than I like to look at them. I usually set a date in my mind that says, any legal animal when hunting OIL or guided hunts out of state. What hurts worse than looking at a small bull.....is looking at an unnotched tag of a once in a lifetime hunt. I cherish and remember all hunts equally....regardless of the size of the animal. Heck, some of my most memorable hunts are of the smaller animals.
Good luck to all the lucky tag holders. Moose hunting is one of my all time favorite hunts. :tup: :tup:
This is where I am at. I very much want and look forward to a freezer full of moose meat. My plan going in is to just trust the first instinct I have when an opportunity presents itself and if the bull/encounter gets me excited, I will send it.

I have to work tell Friday. Once I get home jumping in the truck and headed to camp, fortunate enough to have my son-in-law setting up camp for me. I will keep y'all posted
Good Luck up there!!!

Any moose is a good moose. Let’s see it!!! We have 11 moose kills in our party of hunting over the years…..yeah, some are bigger than others….but we celebrated them all equally. Great eats and great memories are made in moose camp.

I agree. I’m sure the shooter will post pics and a write up soon, maybe. I was just an observer twiddling my thumbs in the background.
