We had a antlerless tag and found this sweet old lady who was willing to smile for the muzzle flash! My second oldest boy but a 80gr tsx thru her ribs with his mighty 243 at about 20 yards. Total hunt time: 15 minutes Distance packed: 20 yards Shot distance: 20 yards Total time from heartbeat to truck bed: 1.5 hours We’ll see if this picture works...  | ||

Outstanding! "...I advise the gun. While this gives a moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprize, and independance to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks." Thomas Jefferson | |||

Lol he’s gone to bed for years asking for hunting stories from work, he’s heard some good ones. Lol we passed on another that was farther off the road and on a Hill....afterward I asked if he was glad we didn’t shoot that one?! He just laughed and said “oh ya!!” He’ll never fully appreciate a ditch moose with his dad until he drops one in a swamp by himself!! | |||

Congratulations to "T man"!  What? you didn't shoot it in the front yard while drinking coffee? Apparently she didn't know a .243 won't kill a moose! Dave | |||

What did your son expect? He had a first class guide. Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times. | |||

Next time put an old pumpkin from Halloween in the truck bed. You might avoid that strenuous 20 yard pack. Joyce and I are both in for that tag next year.

Congrats but he missed out on all the misery of packing one out. Big smile tells it all | |||

lol someday he’ll get his chance to suffer! I guided moose long enough to not enjoy moose killing anymore so unlikely that I’ll be there for his misery! Lol | |||

So much meat! Great going! May the boy enjoy a life time filled with hunting, fishing and all outdoor ACTIVITY!!! I'll be in Wasilla on or before Jan. 25, '18 I do believe, staying for a number of months with a relative.

I know you don’t guide Moose hunters But great job with your son. If all your kids hunt Moose you will need a railroad refrigeration car to hold all the meat. Well have a great Christmas. | |||

Meat on the table at 12 years old,way to go. Well done to you and your son,good luck to you all.jc | |||

Congratulations, to father and son. This is great stuff. A lot of good meat there. velocity is like a new car, always losing value. BC is like diamonds, holding value forever. | |||

I thought you had to have a minimum of .338 Win Mag to kill Alaskan beasts? Surely that .243 bullet bounced right off the thick hide and you finished it off with a large artillery field piece....   If you are going to carry a big stick, you've got to whack someone with it at least every once in while. | |||
