Moose
My daughter turned 12 this year so it was time to chase something bigger than grouse. I held off a year in drawing my moose tag so I could put her down as a partner. We were out for a walk in the bush and had decided to head back to the quad, I was calling as we walked and a bull began calling back and was headed our direction fast. We set up quick and he came in to under 20 yds grunting all the way. She fired a shot and he turned and ran a short distance and fell over. Was an exciting morning, the pics don’t show it but the smiles were big
