...Felt as if we had a 1000lb turkey coming in.

LOL! I know the feeling...

Congratulations!

I haven't decided if I will ever try a Moose hunt or not. Part of the reason is that most of the places to hunt Moose are so far off I would probably have to fly instead of drive and it sounds like it is a major ordeal to get the meat home.

Were you able to get the meat home and if so, how much did that cost?

Thanks, Nathan

We drove 10.5 hours from Massachusetts to the center of New Brunswick. I shot the moose on Friday AM and had it a the local butcher shop early afternoon. They caped it out immediately and hung the moose in the cooler. I stopped by early the next am and they quickly quartered him up and we put him in the trailer and drove home w/ him on ice. Everything went fine. He is at my local butcher now. The NB butcher charged mde $100 to hang, cape, & quarter the animal.
All in all, it was a perfect situation. The butcher had 92 moose hanging when we left Sat AM
