Hunting thread of 2016!
Well done Kevin. I once saw a Shiras moose cross the road while driving when I was in Canada in 2008. The thing was huge. I can only imagine how big an Alaskan moose looks when viewed through the sight window of a longbow at 4 feet.

I like everyone else here enjoyed the journey.

Mate, well done.

Your story was beautiful and gave the moose dignity.

Thanks for sharing the adventure.

Clint and Benny...a couple classy Aussies and I appreciate your comments. Too bad there isn't a moose population in Australia...I know how you guys love physically large game. Some day I hope to go up against your buffalo...it's a dream.

And to all my friends here...PBS or otherwise...thanks again for following along and for your comments. I'm humbled.

Well done Kevin. Thanks for sharing your great adventure. Nose to nose with a rutting bull, must have been an awesome experience.

That pulley caught my interest Kevin. I've been looking for one like this. Who makes it or where can I find one?

Congratulations Kevin on a hard earned memory. You sure did that old bull justice by your detailed account.

Further more, thanks putting this out there in the interest of promoting the PBS. The PBS is without a doubt the best organization to hang out with true die hard bowhunters.
