Overall Impression: Excellent

In 2003 I hunted moose with the bow and saw 58 moose for the trip. Of the 58 at least 18 were bulls including some long range sightings of real monsters and a close encounter with a 14 pointer called in to 30 yards that did not present a shot. I had four encounters with moose at 30-35 yards, but no shot opportunities due to angles not conducive to good clean kills. This was a great amount of action especially since the weather was horrendous for hunting due to high temperatures that set the rut back weeks.In the 3 trips that I have taken when there were guys in camp rifle hunting ( a total of 4 weeks) I believe that all but one tag possessed was filled with moose or caribou (the guy that did not fill passed many moose on the first 3 days and got weathered out at the end of the week). I have seen bear and been in camp with bear taken as well.I'll be back in 2005 for another dose of moose hunting with the bow with the fine family that operates MVO
