[BAKPAKR]

How many people to clean a moose?

Jimmy John has nothing on our own @JohnCushman.

Congrats, John, and thanks to all of the HuntTalkers who helped him out.

Cushman crew left camp this morning so you may see pics soon. In the meantime @JohnCushman called in a young bull with his snoring. No joke that bull was looking for a fight

I’m letting Cush have the honors of posting the moose.

Thanks for all you did on this hunt, Bryan. For those who don't know, @brymoore and the Idaho Wildlife Federation were the key parts to making this hunt happen. Thank you!

@JohnCushman might not be a bad idea to start a new thread so we don't lose the story in the heaps of congratulations...

Not great sound. I was in the back of my truck drinking some jet boil instant coffee and this guy cruised within 50 yards of Cushman's Tent. The man can call in moose in his sleep! Legendary

I didn’t realize John was in his chair by the fire. Was he awake?

He was in the tent. His chair is one of those fluffy ones so it looks like he's there

Kudos to all involved in making this hunt happen, and congrats John!

 

[Southern Elk]

So the bull was killed yesterday and we still don’t have pictures? Can we deduct points for that?

 

[Duck-Slayer]

Should have done The Goat or The Batwing.

Points are added for the wait. Because, as Tom Petty said - the waiting is the hardest part.
