Moose Shot Placement

[Calum]

Hmmm Moose steaks.

Here is a pic of the exact same Moose using Captain Deadly's X-Ray Vision.

 

[Levi Garrett]

Pink, clear shot , no chance of hitting the tall grass, and given the range, and a good rest, its a piece a cake, only a little burger or neck roast lost.
And its gonna go down right there.

 

[BIGREDD]

Head shots Levi?... come on now you can't be serious.

 

[true north]

Pink is neck. pink is good
Like my daddy always said "son,if in doubt, shoot the pink"

 

[beretta boy]

Red !

 

[Levi Garrett]

Head shots Levi?... come on now you can't be serious.

Just going by the spots on the picture , I would wait till it gave me a clear top of the heart shot , through the lungs, with a shot going between the ribs, with no contact of large muscles. That would be my shot

 

[BIGREDD]

Yeah that damn prairie grass/wheat certainly changes the picture. I have tried shooting through grass, not a good idea. You can't see the Moose's legs and it makes it hard to know what the angle is.
Thats why a Corn-Feeder and a Semi-Auto are a good idea.
AskT/B!

good thing too Red, that'd if you were in this moose situation, you'd be surrounded by burning cow moose urine candle sticks! he might turn and give you a better angle for your WSSSSM

the moose ain't dead yet, I see, so can we change our minds?
I had moose picture fever and didn't see the two dwellings - at least one seems inhabited - and there is a possible third one behind the moose's pink spot. Or a truck.... or Levi's outhouse... who cares.....
I therefore deem the neckshot unsafe. Same goes for the omnious hump thinghy.

Actually in this situation ,taking any shot would be unsafe.

 

[Mumptia]

I went blue.

No matter how many times I dream about taking an awsome awsome head shot on a moose I always automatically put the crosshairs on the furnace when I'm in the bush.

 

[HuntAway]

Wait for a little better angle. Through the ribs and both lungs, tenderloin for supper. Blue dot.

 

[John Y Cannuck]

blue, or red, but preffer blue.
Not much chance of seeing a moose in a backdrop like that where I hunt.
That looks like the bruiser I saw last year, the day after I shot my smaller bull, and used up the tag.
Send Him home will ya.
