Moose Hunting (6)

We went back to our camping ground and relaxed and chatted and make plans on which place they preferred to go. It was up to the hunters, they were paying the shot. The hunters decided to go where there were fresh tracks. We had a late dinner, filled up our thermos bottles and off we went.

We took the truck and left one hunter where the fresh tracks were and we went to the Muskeg with the other hunter. We left the truck and walked about ten minutes towards the Muskeg. We found a place to hide. I listened for about half an hour, and started to call with the moose call. Sat back and waited; I whispered “Sh...sh”, to my hunter. “Did you hear that twig snap?”, and he said: “No”. “Sh, be quiet!”, there is a moose nearby. I called again and finally the moose answered me. My hunter looked at me. The moose cam towards me very slowly, and now the sun was going down and it was dusk.

My hunter was nervous, buck fever; we walked very quietly to the truck and had a good cigarette in the truck. We picked up the other hunter and asked if he had heard or seen anything. “only partridge”. All he heard was partridge that are very noisy in the bush. We headed back to our camping ground and had supper.
 
Moose Hunting (7) - the end

After supper we had a couple of drinks. We could hardly wait until sunup the next morning. We were so excited that we forgot to take our coffee. I brought the two hunters there that morning because one would stay on the round and the other would come with me where I was calling the night before. We got to the muskeg where were we were hiding and called the mosse the night before.

I heard a grunting sound. I grunted back. In about twenty minutes there was a nice young buck. My hunter was ready to shoot. I told him to just wait until the moose turned side-ways to have a better. I grunted and the moose stopped and listened. I told my hunter, “shoot!”. He fired one shot and missed. Second, I grabbed the rifle and killed the moose. My hunter was happy. He hugged me and the other hunter ran to see us.

“Did you get him?”

“Yes, right here!”.

-The end -
