Was leaving the hunt worth it?

Reminds me of this epic story of hunters being hosed by shitty AK outfitter but grinding it out and killing awesome moose.

Ok, I've literally been harassed to the breaking point by a few of why I haven't posted the moose trip yet. So, this is gonna take a while, but I will get started:) For most of my life, Alaska Moose has been at the top of my list for hunting adventures. My good friend Harold had guided for an...

And that's how you make lemonade.

Ironic timing as I recently met Harold who was a party to that misadventure.

Harold is a legend.

I think we're missing some important details here. Are we talking about Top Ramen or Shin Black?

There is a silver lining to the OP having left the hunt early. It would have been hell figuring out what to do with my morning if he hadn't.

Which should have given you plenty of time to check references. I drop almost $10K, I'm not leaving bugling bulls...least not cuz of ramen noodles and granola bars.

He was vetted. Even listed on Broken Bones referral site. But I didn’t go through them..

Tryin not to pass judgement about your decision but sweet baby Jesus am I happy you punted on 1st down and posted about it. This thread is pure gold.

I'm bored, trapped at a hotel. Please keep the memes coming.

Pro tip #1: Always bring your own food.

Pro tip #2: Elk are made out of food.

Also, how does one partially setup a tent?

I’m pissed that they dropped the egg white delight. I used to do serious damage on those. Still get regular egg McMuffins often. But I’m trash so there’s that.

Man, I'm torn. The hunt would be my priority, and I likely would have stuck it out and negotiated a discount at the end. But 10k is a chunk of change. I'd never pay that to begin with, but if I did and it came with promises of all this food and a lavish camp set up, I can see how one would be disappointed. Guess I'll stick with doing it myself and knowing ahead of time that I'm eating balogna and ramen.
