My back hurts just looking at it - but I see a horse in the background. Surprised FB still has the photo up. My home is the "sanctuary residence" for my firearms.

Our party took two big bulls with bows and one with a handgun plus a large grizzly boar. Good weather certainly helped as we had bulls responding to calls on the 8th. Any moderate cartridge will do the job on moose if you do your part. A good lung shot and it's over. Our two archery bulls ran about 25 yards at most.
