Title: moose hunting in 49 degrees north
Post by: mvstoecker on August 28, 2009, 11:53:57 AM: I got lucky and drew a tag in the 49 degrees north area. Does anyone know where I can find a big one? I have plenty of time to hunt so would like to hold out for a monster. Also, I am a little to broken down to haul one out on my back like the good old days. Does anyone know someone with horses or mules that might be interested in helping after I get one down.

Holy cow, what are the odds? I have the same problem drew a moose and big bull tag and this being my first year putting in i also got a multi season tag whatever that is??
Never shot a gun before so i should probably go and get one, i would rather just borrow one since i really cant afford to buy one, anyone want to go with me, i could pay for gas if you drive.. Hope you know were to go because i dont have a clue :chuckle:

Post by: OKbowhunter on September 01, 2009, 11:07:14 PM: NO, not a sooner fan, just an avid bowhunter. More of a GU fan. the OK stuck with me from way back in college but that can be saved for another forum. ha ha not much on the braggin part. don't get me wrong the hair stands up on the back of my neck just like all of you. Just try to stay low key. did not get much info from wdfw. I know everyone is pretty tight lipped about there backyard and I totally understand. Love to hunt, period! Sat in a deer stand tonight. Seen alot of deer several small bucks one nice 25" muley just out of range. We will have a few down by the end of the long weekend. I will be leaving the ranch and Back over to scout on the 12th. Last couple of trips lots of Moose just not any large Moose. I'm sure I'm in the right areas just need to tweak things a little. Thought maybe I would throw my hat in the circle.

Post by: OKbowhunter on September 02, 2009, 08:09:31 AM: thanks for the info, nice picture. This Moose hunting is like all the rest a sick fever that I seem to be coming down with. I feel like I can't get enough. I did call in a bull this last weekend when I was up on the flowery trail rd. small bull, but the close encounter just got me going.
