    Went for a long scouting hike today with a buddy and found a rub line. 3 of the rubs were over my head... I'm 6'2"!:eek:

    That's a tall critter! Maybe I'll put in for a MN tag one of these years?:cool:

    I ran into a pile of these this year hunting northern zone NY in the Adirondacks, first time I've ever seen anything like it. I really wish I had the camera with me to take pictures. We were hunting in the vlies on top of a mountain and the moose were in there thick in the mucky stuff. I ended up bumping a mature 50"+ bull out to another member of our camp the first morning I was in there. ;)

    Moose is definitely way up there on the "most wanted" list.

    Good luck if you can get a tag! :)

    Get on It Fitz!! You could end up with one of these!! 62" Inside spread on this Canadian Moose shot In the BWCA. Number 2 In the state, used to be the Mn state record for Archery. My dad shot It In 1987 with his 81lb Howard Hill longbow.

    No I haven't. My fear would be getting drawn w/o having any idea of where or how to hunt them. I know it won't happen like that, but man, I'd be pissed if I drew right away and wasted my one and only chance:confused:


    That is awesome Schultzy! I'll have to have my brother send me the trail cam pic of the bull we captured this fall. Not huge, but he had a sweet rack!:D
