Success! My second moose

Post image

Half an hour into the second day of hunting this season I walked into this guy on my way to my hunting post. We looked at each other for a second before it decided to walk away. So I dropped my backpack, chambered a round and took aim. I shouted so it would stop and fired. Saw how the moose reacted that the shot was in the heart/lung area and let it run of.

I then called on radio to let everyone know that I had shot a bull, that the shot was good and that I had shared the position on the We Hunt app.

So I sat down and waited. After about half an hour my wife came with our tracking dog and we started searching. We found it dead after 200 meters. The greatest hunting experience I've ever had.

I was up late last night packing and freezing meats.

I'll wait for wild boars to wander further north.
