Default ABBs 2023 Bull Moose
After a long season with the bow, 16 bulls called in with no shot through bush.. 8 cows... 5 calfs... i called it quits and took out a rifle that had a lot of sentimental meaning to me when it is shouldered. First light came early and 5 bulls (making that 21 for the season) presented themselves all broadside from 150 to 210 yards in a 80 yard span across an old swamp. After letting the closest bull cross the island in case the ice wouldnt support my weight in a packout, the 300bee barked and the work began, with the Creator blessing the family meat supply once again for the winter.

Well you certainly got a huge break with the weather. November had a lot of nice days to go for a walk with a rifle. Congrats

Very nice, well done. Assume you hunted farm areas with number of moose you had sighted. Most guys this year had tag soup that hunted wilderness areas.
