Oh and in the first week of hunting I saw 20 moose in that area, all cows and calves, this little one came from a cow with 2 calves. Moose are all on the draw in this zone.
Deer not so good only saw that one big guy hanging there and 5 other does / fawns but they were too quick for me to get a shot at. Whitetails you get your regular tag plus the 2 suplementals for antlerless

that's my Pops, He's 84 happy to be out hunting still at his age but only 2-3 days at a time then takes a day off to rest. I'm a fair bit younger

That's what I figured. Hopefully my dad will be able to keep hunting for as long as yours.
On another subject....what is that dune buggy ? Did you carjack somebody on Madmax

Pops built that 2 years ago, thats the second one the first one is over 25 years old, we just call it a bushbuggy
Its made with the drive train from a Hundi Pony, 2 pony rear ends (one flipped upsidedown) and it articulates in the middle to steer like a loader. Hydraulic steering from an old combine. Tires are the same sort as you would find on a ditchwitching machine.
The first one he built used the drive train out of an old datsun B210.
There is a homebuilt gearbox that reduces the transmission output by 5:1 or (4:1 on the first one) and also functions as the transfercase. Full time 4 wheel drive.

no real plan, just get the axles and drive train sorted out and build a frame for it out of 2"x3" boxed tubing. Steering rams were sort of trial and error, I guess I could to some math to figure the tangents and lenght or arc but we managed to do it by trial and error.
after hunting if there is enough interest I'll dig around and see what I have for build photos, I'll take some more of the final product. Plan is all in my dad's head.
