Where's everyone moose hunting this year?
I'm starting to get pumped! Moose season is upon us - where is everyone going this year?
I'm making my annual trip up to 19 - our group has a Bull and a Cow tag - heading up on the 18th of October. Last year we were successful in harvesting cows, and I've just run out of meat. I can't wait to get some more meat in the freezer.

Our group is taking a complete pass this year. I'm to the point where making the investment in time and money without a cow and bull tag doesn't seem worth it. We will have enough P1 to pretty well guarantee that next year so it's no moose hunt this year. I will use that vacation time chasing woodcock instead.
I’m suspicious of people who don't like dogs, but I trust a dog who doesn't like a person.

I was thinking about going this same approach and use the time to bow hunt deer.....but since its my first year and unfamilair with the camp and guys I have decided a week away is a week away and there will be fish and birds to be had as well so in hind sight I am hoping its worth the money to get my foot inthe door...a better read for the land and meet the guys I hope to share many seasons to come with. Stories, hunting, food and a few drinks once the rifles are away what more can ye ask for.

I would agree with your thinking. In my case I have hunted with the same guys for 30 years and also own a deer camp with thesew guys. I have told them that from now on I will only go every other year now and use the off year to hunt other stuff like birds. My dog will appreciate that more anyway, he doesn't go on moose hunts. lol.

Ya I am def going into this hunt with no high expectations other then to meet some good guys hopfully (mostly older) and put the feelers out whether its for me or not (like its not going to be lol ). The way this camp runs is you can buy in and become a member and have full access to using the camp etc for other vacations and atving as well. With only calf tags as well tho I may even pick up a bear tag just in case it turns into that kinda hunt instead.
