Hey stubblejumper, whare is this that you were hunting and around how much would it to be to go there? I wan't to go on a moose hunt for a trophy and i live in maine and cant seem for the life of me to get a permit. I was thinking about alaska in about 3 years or so but i dont want to over pay when i could go some whare else and get one of 50" or more and save a grand or two. I know what most of you are going to say "if i live in maine why dont i just hunt up here." The thing is i do and i havnt seen many 50"ers or larger and when i did its during deer season and like I said I have never got my permit yet so it would be kinda hard to sneak one into camp like the extra partrage.
