Moose hunt

 Like I said that I didn't know how to hunt moose I just was going on what I was told and the internet and that didn't help much. You just have to go and do it make your mistakes and live with the choise you make. I will get to that last statement a little down the road. Now being from Louisiana I deer hunted I get up 30 min I was up in my tree stand. just wait and watching for the bucks to come out. Here where I was hunting the trees are not big enough. I did do a little buck grunts for the deer but here they moose call and I am still not comfortable about that I watch a lot of videos on calling moose and I would practice in the living room the girls looked at me like I had lost my mind. Dixie would just turn her head and the ears would be back like come on you yell at me for barking and you are making this stupid sound don't even yell at me again. I hunted for about 10 or 15 days and I did see a bull but it was what they call a spike it had no palms so I passed on it. If I had taken it  season over. I wanted a bull with palms for my first moose. They travel up and down the river looking for the moose when they see where a moose has gone up the bank they stop and call to see if he will come out. They pitch tents and stay on the river for days. I was thinking I don't know if I am willing to do that. I thought I couldn't until the day after the season closed. When you see the video you will know why I changed my mind. I am already looking for 2 man tents and sleeping bag now I ain't going to rough it I am too damn old to sleep under the stars. When I was younger I would do it but not now. The day after the season closed I went grouse hunting. Me and my wife were talking the night before about that I was going to see a bull moose on the road. I said that would be just my luck see a 60 incher on the road. I went and I saw 3 birds on the road I stopped my bike I didn't even kill it. I got off and out of the woods a bull dang near ran over me and the bike he turned and went back in the woods. I thought that I can't shoot you but I can take a picture of you with my phone. I am telling you now I am not the best camera man and the phone didn't like the sun but it a must see. I don't like the way I had to do this but just click on the link below and you can see what I did.
