Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Alaska Alaskan moose hunters

Anytime my buds or I shoot a moose, we try and guess how big he is before strapping a tape across his antlers. I've been pretty close the last few years but before that I always use to over estiamte their size by several inches. Not bragging about my sizing skills or anything, i've simply gotten better over the years at judging them.

Saw 2 in our area near Delta that would have been legal but we just never got over to where they were at due to wheeler issues. Next year our game plan changes.

Thanks for the info Randy, those 4 brow tine areas can be a real bitch for finding a legal moose, i've only seen a scant few that had 4 or more since we first started hunting there back in '93 and the last one I killed was a 4x3 and only went 47 inches. he was a tastey bastid though.
