    No doubt. My father shot a moose a couple years ago here, took two guys 12 hours to butcher the dang thing once they got it back to denver... I think the freezer is still full of steaks...

    I might be trying for my first moose this year...although I only have 3 or 4 points so i doubt i will draw.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    Listed are some of the MANY reasons why I DON'T hunt. I have nothing against it, but I certainly can't do it by myself. And the mountain hiking? NFW. I'm lucky I can walk at all. I'd love to have a freezer full of meat that I brought home, but it's an endeavor that's just not suited to everyone. So, I shoot jugs full of water.

    See? That's self-reliant. Most people don't kill their own water, they just buy it from the store. They're gonna be screwed when it all breaks down.

    Lots of good ideas. I went down to Sportsmans to sign up for a hunter saftey course, they are booked for a few months but should have it by April.

    If anyone needs a camp jack, let me know. In the mean time I will be wondering the hills "stocking".

    Yep! I'm not an experienced hunter, but been with my dad a few times. Used to live in Alaska, he still does. There many hunters take their first moose in a bog...they never make that mistake again. Up north your also racing the bear and wolves...get it dressed and packed out quick(they're on their way). If a bear happens to find your kill(get the meat out and leave them the gutpile), its legally theirs. Game wardens are the State troopers, You don't see them, but they know 'Exactly' where you are. If you sneeze wrong its a crime scene investigation....literally (not the sneezing part)! Ahhh good times.

    I can't even imagine shooting something as big as a moose! Even if it was standing at the back of my truck, and I could manage to drop in on the trailer. Too big, too much meat. And rasslin' the carcass makes my back hurt just thinking about it!

    I mean, jeezus.....
