Maine Moose Draw
Anybody put in? I have been putting in for 5-6 years straight
and have preference pts since they started giving them. Has
anyone drawn with their pref pts? I only saw one moose story
and I think that was in Ontario. JerseyJoe did you do anything?
Nub?

RE: Maine Moose Draw
Hey Stickerpt, I put up $78:00 for application fees but was rejected here in Montana, however I did get my money back since I didn't get drawn, I encountered some nice bulls dureing hunting season, and even had two diferent bulls here in my yard, but I could never locate anyone who had a permit to turn them onto, figures, Bobby

RE: Maine Moose Draw
I was drawn in 2001 after 16 years of applying as a resident. Killed a 50+ inch bull that dressed at 920.
My sister-in-law was drawn this year, her first time applying with only 1 chance in so I guess you never know.

RE: Maine Moose Draw
Just a returened cashed check, stickerpt. None of my residents friends were drawn either. Maine F&G are proposing changes to next years lottery,,Looks like it will be harder us flatlanders to draw a tag.
I'll keep on trying......<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

RE: Maine Moose Draw
Thanks guys. Sorry stickerpt but its a dream of mine to harvest a moose. Might be silly as there are more prestigious animals but I just would love to have a moose on my wall. But thanks for the info that helps.
Jersey Joe are you serious as I would love to hook up with ya as I have never been up there for a hunt. Maybe we will get drawn at the same time and could go together. That would be cool. But I would have to warn you I would want to use my 445 supermag Dan Wesson to harvest it with. Hope that wouldn't both you too much.

RE: Maine Moose Draw
You ever taste moose meat 445? I am serious!
When the apps come out we'll talk about it. My buddy has a camp near Chamberlain Lake, Maine that we can use as long as we share some meat. It is a difficult draw 445. If you get a tag, its a hunt you'll never forget. I was co shooter on a hunt in 99 for this moose.
