RE: Offical Team Monsters Inc. Thread (27)
Hey guys, I am back. We got up there wednesday night around 10pm and set up the tent and dropped the trailer and took whatever we wouldnt need out of the truck. Thursday morning came, we were up at 5:00am, got the coffee made and had a bite to eat. We got into our hunting clothes and got into the truck by 6:00am. We went out the camp road and 100 yards up to our first hunting road. It was too dark to see much so we sat at the beginning of the road until about 6:20am until we could see. We started driving about that time...about 25 minutes later, still on the same road we came around a corner and looked out over a big cutoff...there he was. About 150 yards down into the cut with a cow they started walking away when they saw the truck. My friend got out and settled the cross hairs with his .270 and fired 3 times, being his subpermittee I was permitted to shoot as well, after I asked if he wanted me to shoot I fired one shot with my .450 marlin. He went to bed down and expire...
Luckily we were able to get the truck down a skidder trail to within 500 feet of the moose (after a lot of brush moving). We had to come-along the moose 30 feet onto the skidder trail...then we stretched out all the rope I brought and began to pull him 50 feet at a time. All said and done the moose fell at 7:00am, and we got him back out to the main road at 2:00pm. We got him on the trailer and back to the camp. Got some food, packed up camp and headed for home around 5:30pm. Tagged the moose, got gas, and arrived back at my buddies fathers house at midnight.
900 pound, 49" spread bull moose
No pictures yet...soon though

Well guys, I scored in MD last night 10 minutes till dark!! Nailed a nice big mature doe at 15 yards, that rage made a huge hole! She ran 100 yards somehow with a shot that took out both lungs and clipped the heart. Nice way to start of the season. Exited in the pocket of the shoulder,here is the pic

Nice doe Ray! Now go out and get something with horns.[8D]Well, I went out tonight, but no luck. I had a doe walking the edge of the beans right behind me, but she must have cought my scent or something, she got to where I cut into the woods to go to my stand, and she turned and hight tailed it out of there. Dont know if I will make it out durring the week this week or not, but if not, I will get out next weekend.
