Never met a moose or elk I didn't like...right next to the taters and greens!

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs

Ray I took the meat off the ribs. I used the gutless method and had to pack the loads a mile or so. Only bones I had were the bones to help steady the load of the quarters. I will post pics of the meals if you want  :) . I was real tempted to bring the ribs out though!

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Congratulations!! Great story. Thanks for sharing.

I know what you're talking about on worrying about waking up next to a pine tree. I've had that fear the last couple of years in Colorado. Man, there's a LOT of dead trees on them mountains. What are the locals saying about what will (or should) happen there? I always thought that if a fire ever got started only the good Lord would be able to stop it, but that was probably what would have to happen.

Don't mean to hijack and won't. May have to start another thread.

Congrats again!! Moose is my dream hunt.
