Moose...it's what's for dinner. Looks like the wood shed is getting more decoration too. Nice job Dave.
 
Nice Moose! I was a sub permittee on a hunt here in 2011. Moose is delicious! Unfortunately they keep lowering permits issued due to moose heard health.
 
Eat well this winter Dave.
 
That thing looks like a horse hanging there man,lol
Heak of alot more meat than the deer that hang from my tree.
Never ate moose before Dave, what do they favor in flavor, or is it a taste of its own ?

Taste less gamey than deer.
Has it's own flavor.
Compared to deer & elk, moose is the better tasting. IMO

nice. did he walk right up to the camp??

Saw a moose and her calf ON the trail coming down Tuckerman's ravine on Mt Washington last month. Cow was on one side, calf on the other, had to wait for them to move on because we didn't want to get between them...must have waited 20 minutes...even had the hound dog with us.. I don't think she could have cared less...ended passing by them...must have been less than 10 feet
 
Where's the beef?? ;lol
 
Way to go Dave!

Had one come near camp but was unable to see the brow tines.

I called,
this one answered,
came to within 75 yards,
saw 3 brow tines. Legal size. (spike fork, 50" or 3 brow tines on one side)
About 1/4 mile from camp.
 
Moose are a lot like firewood. While everyone else sits around and enjoys it, all you can think about was how much work it was just to get it out of the woods and into the house.

You have my respect. Moose huntin' ain't deer huntin'!

Wow - awesome pics - love that pic of 1999 Yamaha big bear 350? what ever you do, don't get rid of that quad, those where imo the best machines ever built, 5speed, shaft driven, super low first gear, turn knob lever for reverse. All the newer ones are automatic and crap (I own a 2009 grizzly 700)
