E-Fishin-C Posted November 22, 2008 #1 Posted November 22, 2008 A possible new Ontario record Bull Moose was harvested recently near Thunder Bay. It has yet to be officially scored as the rack must go through a prescribed "drying out" time before being scored. It apparently measures 64 1/2", and has more point scoring characteristics that the current record. Record or not, congrats to Thunder Bays Fred Hilliard.
BoomerCPO Posted November 22, 2008 #2 Posted November 22, 2008 That dude will be eating good this Winter!
Yammer Dan Posted November 22, 2008 #3 Posted November 22, 2008 Makes you wonder how something like that gets thru the brush don't it??
Skid Posted November 22, 2008 #4 Posted November 22, 2008 Makes you wonder how something like that gets thru the brush don't it?? Thru the brush, he just goes over it.....
Guest weirdbeard Posted November 22, 2008 #5 Posted November 22, 2008 What did he shoot that monster with? I would be afraid to shoot that huge thing.. Might just make it mad!
Redneck Posted November 22, 2008 #6 Posted November 22, 2008 Makes you wonder how something like that gets thru the brush don't it??Goes through just like a bulldozer. Now that's a moose. I wonder how much he weighs
Squidley Posted November 23, 2008 #7 Posted November 23, 2008 WOW! That is a beast, I can only imagine what was going through his mind trying to keep the gun steady
BEER30 Posted November 23, 2008 #8 Posted November 23, 2008 Believe me , they can move gracefully amongst anything , but the heavy thick trees themselves . Those heavy thick trees saved my butt ! I've seen them mangle up a cage just for spite ! They no like horns either . BEER30 Yum , Yum , moose meat stew !
Marcarl Posted November 23, 2008 #9 Posted November 23, 2008 A prize like that needs to handled very carefully, and needs an expert with a knive to keep the value. Cooler has lots of room. Freezer is moose ready.
Kregerdoodle Posted November 23, 2008 #10 Posted November 23, 2008 must have shot it on the road and drug it home.... thats got to be around 1500lbs... Great eats for them this winter...

PBJ Posted November 23, 2008 #13 Posted November 23, 2008 OOOhhhh! Poor little Moosey. There somebody was going to say it! LOL!
hipshot Posted November 24, 2008 #14 Posted November 24, 2008 it's hard to believe, that an animal can grow such a MASSIVE antler rack, in a few short months!!! looks like this guy is about 50% neck and shoulders! keep us updated, charlie. i sure would like to know what he weighted. just jt
Guest Ken8143 Posted November 24, 2008 #15 Posted November 24, 2008 Can you just imagine cruising along, minding your own business, cresting a hill, and seeing that rack ahead of you, head down, with a gleam in the eyes. My imagination is way too vivid.
MikeM8560 Posted November 25, 2008 #16 Posted November 25, 2008 Wow , I came upon a moose no way near that big on a snowmobile trial i Berlin NH once. we just looked at each other for a few seconds b4 he moved on.
AKRefugee Posted November 25, 2008 #17 Posted November 25, 2008 Thanks, do you know how hard it is to keep the drool off the keyboard. Moose meat is second only to Elk in my book. So sweet it's like eating candy to me. Bambi on the table yum yum yum Thumper in a stew for me and you (sorry just couldn't stop myself after seeing all that delicious meet)
vtwinr Posted December 26, 2008 #18 Posted December 26, 2008 Knew a Canadian once who hunted them all the time. He said that he'd stick the dead moose in some icy cold nearby stream and come back for it later. He claimed that the meat tasted better over that of others due to the particular diet of a moose that it is know for. I think he said it nibbles away on bark!?!? I took it he knew what he was talking about.
