2017 Ontario Moose Hunt - 2 bulls down

Post by Hunt it »

Image

This is the largest of the two bulls we took on our archery moose hunt this year. This one was taken with 380 Matrix using BE 18" shafts with G5 Striker head. Double lung hit at 20 yrds - recovered within 80 yrds. He had been fighting with another bull and we had them both come in the morning prior but the bigger bull did not give me a shot at 12 yrds! This guy was all beaten up and bruised from head to toe. You can see the tine entrance wound on his lower front shoulder. He had another hole in his nose as well. I've never seen one this beat up. An old warrior for sure. His neck was swelled up as big as it could get.
