Muley Hunter, moose tags range anywhere from about $300 in most Canadian provinces to around $2000 in some US states. In general, they are very hard to get. In Canada, they are guaranteed when you hire an outfitter (which you legally must do anyway if you are a non-resident), but they are 1st come, 1st serve, so you have to book early. In all US states except Alaska, they are draw only. In some cases, cow tags are not especially hard to get, but they cost as much as bull tags. I've heard that there are guys in Montana who applied every year for 20 years and still didn't draw their bull tag.
I just meant Canada. If you can't get one without an outfitter. That kills that idea.

Thanks.
