This is a ageing a bit with no responses....here is my opinion.
I have been lucky enough to go on two guided moose hunts in Newfoundland, previously a lifetime whitetail hunter in NY.
Moose hunting is a whole new game, you do not mention any previous hunting experience. Dealing with a moose once it is down is a lot of hard work, and you owe it to the animal not to waste any.
I would strongly recommend finding an outfitter who can help /guide you for your first hunt. Learn where to go, what you are looking for, get hands on field dressing /processing it and packing it out. Despite being in good physical shape and essentially knowing how to do the job, no way would I have wanted to tackle...then or now, the process on my own.
