If I am correct, you can go earlier, BUT, with bow!
And, if I can give you 2 bits, I see more bulls at the end of Sept, already chasing cows and being "really stupid" and walking in to calls, even elk calls.
I have found that many times we get them in to 10 yards, but sadly, never get the tag (like u say 15 years u have tried).
So, something to think about if you want.
FYI, we hunt beyond road closures on foot, spend all day out on foot, but we have plenty of Moose around us by hunting that way.
good luck

Thanks for the advice we don't mind walking and our draw starts on the 15 of October (will be there for opening day)

Look at the synopsis, I believe you can bow hunt from Sep 1 to Oct 14. Page 8 of the synopsis..

Yup, I missed the little (*) symbol, where it says you can hunt, but with bow from Sept 1 til Oct 14, THEN, you can use RIFLE.
(now, I haven't looked if 4-24 has the *, but check to see)
Only reason I say it, is the opportunity to find a bull, call in a bull, seems to be much better late Sept, from my experiences.
The bulls, all the bulls, seem ready to come in to check things out.
Yes, the mating may occur in October, but it is always better to find a bull who is looking already, rather then one that has it's
cows...imo.
Re: Any BUll draw in 4-24
Yes you can hunt 4-24 with a bow from September 1st to October 14th
my 10 year old son has the same draw as well.
