PHONE CALLS FROM THE BUSH

AK NIMROD · 09-20-2008, 08:36 PM

2 NIGHTS AGO GOT CALL FROM MY SON. HE ARROWED A 51-52 INCH BULL MOOSE

HE IS HAVING GREAT YEAR BACK IN ARCHERY , AWAY FOR 24 YEARS. HEGOT A REAL NICE CARIBOU LAST MONTH AND NOW THIS BULL....BIGGER THAN ANY OF THE 3 MOOSE I HAVE SHOT.
THEN LAST NIGHT A CALL FROM HIS HUNTING PARTNER AND ONE OF MY "ADOPTED SONS" HE ARROWED A SPIKE BULL MOOSE.

[8D] HIS FIRST MOOSE WITH A BOW ALSO.....HAS RIFLED 6-8BULLS.I GOT HIM INTO ARCHERY AND TOOK HIM OUT A FEW YEARS AGO TO GET A SPRING BEAR. THEY ARE IN A REMOTE AREA ( NO MOTORIZED VEHICLE USEAGE UNTIL TOMORROW) BUT CLOSE ENOUGH FOR CELL PHONE COVERAGE.....IF THEY ARE IN THE SECOND STORY OF THEIR NEW CABIN. THEY SHOULD BE HOME LATE TOMORROW AND I HOPE THEY WILL HAVE SOME PICTURES IF SO I WILL POST SOME.
MY SONS IS USING A MATHEWS ICON HIS ANIMAL TRAVELED 30-40 YARDS AFTER DOUBLE LUNG SHOT. THE MOOSE WAS HIT A LITTLE LOW FROM OLDER GOLDEN EAGLE BOW.....BOTH MY OLD BOWS HANDED DOWN. HE TRAVELED 50 YARDS ...BUT SHOT WAS HEART AND BOTH LUNGS.

I'M ONE PROUD POPPA OF MY BOYS, WISH I WAS WITH THEM BUT IWAS SUPPOSE TO BE OUT GOAT HUNTING UNTIL TODAY. BOAT PROBLEMS MADE ME HEAD HOME EARLY.
