Shiras Moose SE Idaho

[Minute_of_Antelope]

Took about 20ish days in the field but was able to bag an OTC elk in this zone then 9 days later got this moose at 20 yards .

He (followed by two smaller bulls) responded to my half-assed cow call. Packout wasn’t too terrible-a mile to the trailhead.

Congrats, any Shiras is a trophy, bonus when it's a good bull! Hard tag to come by, that's an accomplishment!

Thanks! Yeah, while he’s not a monster I’m still really happy with him. I’m just in awe of these animals and it was a cool though occasionally frustrating experience.

It can be a lot tougher hunt than most folks think. Nice work on that bull.

Right?! The number of guys who said “but I see those dumb things all the time on my elk hunts/dirt biking/etc” was kind of nauseating.

Congrats! Not sure what SE zone you were in but, I've seen moose every year I hunted in a popular SE zone. Never a tag of course!

O gays! I was in SE Idaho a few weeks back on a deer hunt and saw quite a few moose. They’re beautiful animals. Maybe one day I can get a tag!

Yeah I veered away from the more densely populated units since it is so hard to draw in diamond or Tex creek it seems like

Thanks! Not pictured: freezing hands and an inability to start a fire

Thanks brother!

Congrats! I just filled my moose tag last weekend in a unit very close to yours. Definitely a lot tougher to find the moose when you are hunting them. If I was deer or elk hunting they would be in the middle of the road.

Haha, seriously. Not there when you need ‘em!
