Does that make it more mature? Huh..

I guess I was looking at it from a whitetail perspective. I may be dead wrong. Longer tines. More mass. More bone overall. Like seeing a nice 3 year old deer vs a more mature 4 or 5 year old. Could be wrong

Made one last trip out to my area and put this fat boy down in less than 2 hours from the car. Except, by myself and on my back, it took over two days to get him back to it.

After some calling and brush raking this 61 incher responded with some brush raking of his own. He would not leave his cow and never grunted back so we put the sneak on him and the rest is history. My hunting partner said he never thought he would get a bull like this one - boom! It was one of those memorable nights getting back to camp at 3:30 a.m.!

Nice bulls. I love the utv's right next to a downed moose. Those things are heavy AF and most guys will truly never understand just how heavy. I have a new found respect for anyone who has packed a moose for any considerable distance. Congrats All!

The hunting was slow, but we found a couple bulls in one of the any bull units.

We did pretty good for a couple of guys that had no idea what was going on had 10 days to hunt due to weather we figured we only hunted 4 total pilot pulled us one day early since we tagged out

I just got back from 14-days in remote western Alaska a hundred miles from the coast, and the wx was extra challenging this year to say the least. During the longest wx window break, I was able to take this big guy. 64" 5x3. I'll write a bit about it with some better photos a little further down the road after I catch-up with things at work and home...

Nice bull!

We had a great hunt. Saw a giant and a few shooters early. Called small sublegal bulls to camp. Then, went four days at the end w/out a moose sighting, and my nephew shoots one at 5pm on the last day. What we thought was solid grass, was actually knee deep water! Got back to camp late, to enjoy the northern lights to cap off the end of our trip. Not what we expected in our hunt, but sometimes that's the best.

It was my third year DIY moose hunting, and I'm batting a 1000 on being a guide, mule, and sherpa to my son, a nephew, & friend. I’m zero for three on my own AK moose but that's OK. I hope one year I get to carry my own, but I'm excited to have shared their hunts and feel richer for it. I did get my first AK trad kill unexpectedly, and some tasty tundra chicken taco's afterwards. Can't wait to get back.

Thank you!

It's the same location (by our request) that we were dropped last year. Still out on the flat "kazillion lakes" area, but just a bit higher ground that allows us to go in on wheels (and not live in our chest waders!). There are pros/cons to that choice, i.e., the wind has to be just right for them to land/take-off.
