    My First Moose

    LIG


    Being my first moose I shot, I made the mistake of shooting before thinking. I will never shoot another moose in the middle of a swamp. 8 hours to retrieve. I have learnt 20 feet off the road on the uphill side, don't even look down the downhill side. Aches galore but still happy.
    The challenge of retirement is how to spend time without spending money.
    The worst day slinging lead is still better than the best day working.
    Look around is there someone you can introduce to shooting because that’s the only way we will buck the anti gun trend sweeping Canada! "tigrr 2006"

    Lol, at least not in water. Thats my only rule! When you eat it you will forget the uphill roadside thing.
    Water though,,, makes it ugly

    Hey, don't say that. I'm heading to the Cariboo in a few weeks. There'd better be two bulls waiting for me.
