I shot a moose that size when I was 13 yrs old. Nice to look at but I never wanted to shoot one that big again. Mind you he was very heavy into the rutting activity. I heard him coming in from his heavy breathing not from his calls. Did he ever smell of rut juice when dad & I cleaned him. Quite tough meat. Now I just pass those boys up, and wait for the younger bulls.
Was at a buddies last night having a beer and we looked out his window to see a cow and calf walking thru his yard about 15 yards from the window. He keeps a salt block in his back acre just to see animals. He dosen't hunt or allow anyone to hunt on his property. Goes thru about a block a year. Next time I go there I'm going to bring my camera. Probably illegal but he don't care, he is native.
