Ha Ha, wait till ya get a Moose......
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...
Great eating.
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.
Well don't get me wrong we do pretty good. We have yet to Not come hme with something. Can't remember a year not scoring on antilope, usually a deer and we really only put in for cow elk, can't eat the antlers. However we do hunt in other states as CO is a hard place to hunt, draw etc. and our days afield are rather short.
It is a gerat way to be with your family, and enjoy quality time with them.
Got a free range bison this past year. Now there is a freezer full.
If you need a woods-wandering partner, let me know. That is my favorite way to spend a weekend day and I am getting cabin fever lately.
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.![]()
