Well like the plumber with a leaky pipe I finally settled on my setup for our Moose hunt.  Heck we got til Thursday right?  LOL

Anyway I'm shooting a 17" Dryad Epic riser and Long recurve limbs.  The riser is Myrtle and Coco and the limbs are black with Actionwood cores.  Weight is 53 @ 30.5.

Jason is shooting the mirror image riser and long curve limbs with bamboo cores.  His is 54 @ 29 1/2.

We both shoot the same arrow.

Arrows are GT biggame 100s 31", 100 gr brass inserts with Abowyer Brown Bear heads and aluminum adapters.  Makes the arrow 667 gr. with 300 gr upfront.  12 gpp with a 21% foc.

Flys like a dart!!

Been shooting and tuning for a couple of weeks now and this is it.

Now we just need a big ol' moose to get in the way.

GOOD LUCK GUYS !!

Don't shoot em both the same day,will be too much work packin!  

Good luck Mike! Looking forward to the story and pictures.

I heard the best place to shoot a moose was in the road.  

Yeah good luck.

Best of luck on your hunt!

You're going to be shooting Dryads? What a surprise! Have a great trip and be safe. The moose (if you get one or two) will only be an added bonus to top off a fantastic adventure.

Good choices....now what did you decide for your backup bows?  I'm a firm support in having a backup bow that i am as comfortable shooting as my primary.  LOL...you just thought all of your decisions where made!  Easy way for picking a backup is....the bow that you where contemplating bring but decided on the other bow.  

I have a moose hunt scheduled September 27 - October 5th in northwest canada.  I have decided on my primary bow 3 piece tree stick from Acadian Woods that pulls 51#'s at 29.5" and shooting full lenght 3555 Goldtip Traditional arrows with 3rivers weight tube inserts (black ones 3 grains per inch)with 165 grain Zwickey no mercy single beveled broaheads.  I have 12 hunitng arrows made up already 6 with the Zwickeys and 6 with 150 grain Grizzley single bevels. I just got my Bison Gear pack and will have all of my daily needs packed nicely in it.

My backup bow will be my recently aquired Bear Takedown signed by Fred Bear and Frank Scott...still trying to decide on the limbs but know the riser is making the trip!  Given the MOJO that those 2 gentelmans should give that riser....i may be wearing it arround my neck for good luck!

Good Hunting to you

Michael

Heard they cancelled the season this year.

Mike, have a great time, be safe, and I hope you get a great ol biggin !!!!

Good luck Mike and Jason!  Look forward to hearing how the adventure unfolds.  In the past I really enjoyed following your elk adventures here in Idaho.

Shoot strait and have fun.

My 50th moose season is coming up (my Dad started taking me out I was eight years old).

Looking at your setup, I say.......Go Get Em!

What season was closed this year?  I just talked to my guide a few days ago and he did not mention any closing or potential closing.

Please tell us more!
