Default Pics from my Minn. - Wis. hunting trip

I bow hunted northern Wis. with very little success. It's sad to say that after 17 hunts I only saw one doe. I headed to Minn. to rifle hunt. Hear are some pics from my trip.
My home away from home


I saw 5 moose in Minn. 4 cows were on a clearcut and a nice bull almost kissed my front bumper on my truck.


A moose rub.


A moose was here too!


A Wis. 5x5 elk. Sorry the pic. quality is poor. I took the pic. at night while trying to hold a spotlight on him.


A bald eagle.


This red fox was almost tame. He was hanging around my camper one day. I got tons of cool pics. of him and he let me get within 10 feet of him.


A few scenery pics.








I saw 4 bucks while rifle hunting in Minn. I was running short on time so I decided to take this buck. I estimated his weight at 175. I got 64 pounds of deboned meat off of him. I stalked up on him while he was feeding on an old clear cut. My gun failed to fire and I had to open and close my slide action 3 times before the gun finally fired. He could here me making noise but could'nt figure out what the noise was. My shot cut the top of the heart off and he ran up hill about 20 yds. and stood right up on his hind legs and tipped over backwards.




And now it's off to rifle hunt northern Wis. - after I get my gun working right

I think the red fox has to be one of my favorite animals, they are awesome.

I also need to put in for the moose hunt in MN. It is a truly "once in a lifetime" hunt, as you can only go once in your life.

Congrats on the Buck!

I hunt in the clam lake area. I have talked to a bunch of guys that had very few deer sightings up in that area. I should have good snow so I will be tracking as much as I can.
