Awfully tight grip on his bow!

Moose seem retarded, but killing a huge ass moose and mounting him on the wall is my greatest hunting dream! Not sure I'd do it with a bow..and not sure I'd let him get that freaking close!

What pin do you use there???

I bet he had a turtle head poking out!

I would like to go moose hunting but they are about the most "Corky" like of all the big game animals. When calling them you hold an oar above your head and cluck like a caveman about to have the big "O"! Now tell me they are not a little slow...

No matter what that was GREAT FOOTAGE!

I wish I could find the footage of a bear hunt that I believe Jim Shockey was guiding on. It was for bear. Anyway they were laying on a pile of drift wood and a not quite a shooter shows, you don't see it from the camera angle but you can see the hunter is getting more and more visibly shaken. The the bear crests the logs... The hunter is shaken like a beaten dog and Jim Shockey is saying real quiet "don't shoot, don't shoot". lol The bear gets so close that the muzzle of the gun is touching its belly... While standing over them! Epic!

The bear leaves and the hunter starts doing the funky chicken from the adrenaline dump.
