Moose Hunting Tips by Jennifer Vashon Wildlife Biologist
Prior to the moose season, sight in your rifle.
Moose often appear closer than they are, because of their large size. Keep this in consideration when estimating the distance to the moose before you shoot.
Be prepared to get your moose out of the woods. Rope, come-alongs, pulleys, a chain saw, and waders can be indispensable on your hunt.
Quartering your moose will make it easier to haul and will reduce the risk of your meat spoiling.
Skinning your moose, or filling the chest cavity with ice, will also reduce the risk of your meat spoiling.
A 30-30 can be used for shooting a moose, but it doesn't have the range of larger guns. A larger caliber gun (308, 30-06, 7 or 8mm) may improve your success and reduce the possibility of wounding a moose.
