On my way home from work this afternoon and a pair of yotes crossing a stubble field caught my eye. So I pulled over and pulled out the binos and watched them mouse for a bit when a glint of sunlight reflected off of some horn in the bush behind them. Shut off the truck and got the binos steady and sure enough I could pick out a bull moose in the brush just in side the field edge. So I decided to have some fun, I turned around went back to the next grid road and headed south into an oil lease parked the truck and struck off with the wind in my face for a point of trees aproximitly 400 yrds due east of the bull. Once in position I let go with a few mournful cow moose moans and waited. 5 min nothing no noise no grunts , I let out another series of moans and waited. After 10 minutes I figured he's not falling for it or has a cow outta site with him. I stand up turn to leave only to here a twig snap right behind me. I shoulda had it on video but all I got is a nice pic. I wish I was drawn but no tag, here is a beauty of an alberta bull at 8 yrds.
That's a broad side shot that archers and riflemen alike dream about.
