Just came back from a moose hunt. There wasn't much action...weather wasn't cooperating , but after a week of chase finally got one. Here is a video of a post "shot" actions.......for entertainment only...

The story is... we ventured into this cut late morning .... looked for sign and called in strategic points. On the way out my friend spited a bull ate the bottom of the cut at the edge of the swamp. Quickly we moved close to the the area against the wind and called for the rest of the day with no result. Next morning we came back. My friend went back to the edge of the swamp to call and I scouted the rest of the area. At the end I ended up at the top of the cut by the big timber. I noticed some fresh sign, so I found good canceled spot and started calling. It didn't take 5 mins when I heard first grunt back from the forest.... it quickly became more rhythmic .....it was coming from my right - direction of the wind- I moved to that direction and rested on the stump....lifted my head up and noticed set of antlers moving steadily towards me.....could not be more than 50 yards. Obviously he wanted to get the scent of me....I waited for him to clear the stump to have clear shot ....and bang!....he stood up with his head up staring at me....I stood up as well faced him and let another one go....he fell ....and the rest is in the movies.
