Biggie that's a super bull! Great pictrues.

That thing has to be huge...it even makes you look small.

Way to go Steve!  He looks plenty big enough!           And congratulations again Biggie!

Come on "Biggie" your killing us. Out with the story. Probably the closest most of us will ever be to a nice bull like that. Feed the fire my man.

That's why Eldon gets the "big bucks"!!!!!

Great bull Biggie!  You've had ample time to rest up and down a few moose steaks.......now on with the story!       I'm leaving Saturday for my moose hunt in WMD 17......I need a good story to get me fired up....wait.....I'm already fired up.....I guess I just need a good story!

Thanks for sharing.

Biggie, not bad at all for a Jones County redneck... even if you are an import.  When you invite Sarah Palin over for moose burgers, give me a call.  Congratulations on such a fine animal.

[Wiley Coyote]

Congratulations to you both. They are fine looking animals. They will taste good too!!!  

[bornagainbowhunter]

[penrosefred]

WOW, what a moose. Just great

[Tom Leemans]

Way to go Biggie! Now no pictures of you dragging it around in your underwear, o.k.?

[Jeff Sample]

What a great animal (the moose). Congrats, well done Biggie!  

[Biggie Hoffman]

Dang Tom, I wish I would've thought of that...that would have been too funny eh?

Ok......ya'll have been pretty patient with me. Marty and Uncle Gene have been on my butt to tell a little bit of the story. I'm gonna hold back some, cause I'm working on something for PBS and don't want to give it ALL away.

I went, I saw, I conquered....how's that?

Ok,,,,ok....

On Tuesday we came around the bend in the road to see a 40" bull standing there. While he was decideding wether or not to take on the truck, I dropped down into the woods to sneak up on him. I don't sneak as well as I used to and he turned and walked off into the bush.

I was dying to go up in there after him and after a half hour or so, I talked Paul into heading up the ridge to see why he''d gone up there. Had to be a reason right?  Topped out and headed west towrds a clearcut when we came across a skidder trail that had 2 big fresh (That means they stunk really bad) wallows. Our bull had obviously just been there.
Paul had a bottle of cow urine in his pack and he sprayed the wallos down. As we went down the hill on the skidder trail we sprayed it all the way down to the road and as we suspected, came out right where he'd gone in earlier.

so.........

figuring this was his "route" we went on and hunted elsewhere, hoping he'd come back thru tomorrow. Same time, same trail.

Guess what? We were right!  Or so we thought.....!!!

Biggie, is that one of Joey's Swamp Rooter bows that you used?

[Biggie Hoffman]

Yep.

Ok, just finished supper.

   
We saw bunches of moose.

   
The fall colors were spectacular!

So next day we met Marty and his guide for lunch before we went back to the "spot".
   

No moose. Paul called once and I heard the bull burp about 200 yards down the hill. We happened to be standing in the road and since the moose walk the roads alot, I got off into the bush WITH MY SWAMP ROOTER RECURVE MADE BY JOEY BUCHANAN and Paul moved up the road about 50 yards and starting calling. I could hear the bull coming closer but he hung up. Paul later told me that it crossed the trail about 200 yards down from where we were. He could see down the trail, I couldn't.

He sounded hung up to me and I looked back at Paul and saw him running towards the truck!  WTH is going on?  He grabs a black jacket and puts it on. He runs down the road towards me and I read his lips, "I'm going to let him see me".
Ok, I thought, I get it. The bull will think his cow is leaving.

He got down to where he could see around the corner and called once. Immediately the bull burped and I could tell he was coming. Paul started back up the road slowly, calling every few steps. When he got back into his original position, I could see him frantically trying to signel me to nock an arrow ON MY SWAMP ROOTER RECURVE MADE BY JOEY BUCHANAN.  I figgered this would be a good chance to screw with him so I purposely DIDN'T nock an arrow  8-)

[Killdeer]

Awwww...
Can't you just PRETEND not to nock an arrow?   :eek:
