Ontario Moose Hunt
« Thread Started on Jul 27, 2010, 7:25pm »

The story of my 09 moose hunt actually starts back on the last day of the 08 hunt. The waiting game just was not working. Playing the wind, I was pulling into different bays walking in and making some cow in heat calls to see if I could get a response from a lonely bull. On my way in to get set up I noticed a ton of moose sign. I had missed the boat on this hot spot. I got in a ways and jumped a good buck and shot him. Keeping this spot on my agenda for the 09 hunt, I headed back in on the opener and put some blockers in spots to watch the back door. I was just about to the end and heard a shot ring out. When I got over to the blocker he said he got a shot at a big bull that caught him off guard and thought he missed. We looked around for blood for more than an hour and found none. The hunt was going good during the week so I was to busy to get back in there till the last day of our hunt. I set the blockers out and got dropped off way down the block,looking at some big country to cover I was happy to have my GPS. About 3/4 through the drive I seen black. I walked left then right and couldn't make out what it was. I walked about 10 yards closer and seen a bulls head turn exposing his rack. I lifted the 300 mag and ripped one off shooting at his neck. He fell right over hard. I ran up to his motion less body when my father comes on the radio and says what did you get ? The bull heard his voice and stood right up only 10 feet from me, talk about a scary situation. I gave him another bullet through the vitals and he was down for good. After examining the bull I found a bullet wound in his leg where my buddy had shot him almost a week earlier already healing over. When I looked at my GPS I noticed that this bull died with in a 100 yards from where I put the buck down the year before. What a great way to end a hunt.

Thank you Tims taxidermy for doing a great job on my Rack.

Hey buddy, what a great hunt you had for that moose in Ontario. Sounds like you boys have your hunting methods down pat. How exciting for a hunt like that to come together. Thanks for sharing the hunt with us and for the pics. It was a most enjoyable read, and congrats on a fine hunt.
