I've never passed up a legal elk I thought I could get off the mountain, so I guess the same would hold true to me for moose!

I don't think there is such a thing as a small moose,but of all the ones I've eaten that size bull is the best there is,even better than a cow.

Congratulations!

John Havard, my biggest elk was 9 1/2 years old- and ate like the best beef ever butchered!

Go get you one!!!

You ready to come pig hunting?

Like I stated in a different post, Here all trophies are world class from tree rats to that big ol' mound of meat right there.

 Awsome, I will get my chance one day.

Ray, thanks for the info on bull elk.  I never want to offer an opinion unless it's based on extensive first-hand experience and it sounds like your evaluation of elk meat is just that.  

Speaking of pig hunting, I've BEEN ready to go pig hunting!  Just a couple of weeks ago the wife and I moved to Mill Valley, CA and have been unpacking and hanging pictures and putting stuff away since then.  I still have on my to-do list to come out and pig hunt with you.  It will happen and I hope sooner rather than later.  I'll be in touch.

Great bull, and that is a trophy animal any time   :)  

To answer your question "I am curious however, what you think of harvesting a "little" bull like this."

I think you should freeze some, pack it in a Styrofoam box and overnight it to me....  :bigsmyl:

I lived in Alaska for a few years while I was in the Air Force, hunted a lot but never drew a tag for the Fort Richardson hunt for moose.  My friend did, and he made the best of it...

Have a pic to post here, but he did use a compound so I won't...  46" bull, perfect 20 yard double lung shot.  But, we saw a lot of different moose while hunting snowshoes and spruce grouse.  I only wish I could have drawn a tag... stalked many different moose, bulls, cows, and calves.  Would have loved to put an arrow in any of them.

Although his was some very good eating, I would venture to guess younger is better table fare given it is with whitetails... you did good!  Especially since it was rifle season when you did so.  Critters don't act themselves when they are being pressured as they are during any rifle season.
