need some info for this southern boy. i am thinking about my planing my 3rd trip up to NH, Maine border area about rollingsferd, somersworth, and sanford area (sorry i Butcherd the names which i know i did) i normaly come to do some trout and salmon fishing. will prob do the same again but wanted to look around for decent gun stores just to hang out and chew the fat some. any suggestions guys.
also i was sent a email of moose pict that was taken in maine wanted to know if it was real or was photo shop i know are big really big maine but this thing is HUGE!! has any one seen this email or pict. THE PICTURE WAS TAKEN NEAR MCADAM Just across the border from Vanceboro , Maine.... the email stated that the dirt road was 1 1/2 cars across. i cant find link for it to post it but it is one big moose if it real. i can forward the email if yall want. but the reason i think it is photo shop is because their something across the road that doesnt look right. but who knows. dawggs |
You think that's big? Wait 'till you see their mosquitoes! Forget the bug spray.....bring a 20 gauge!
Actually, that looks about right from my experiences in the wilds up there. I've seen some huge moose that tower over a 4 wheel suv the guide was driving. The trees look mostly like scrub that has grown up around a road that was wider at one time. Rome |

Well I hate to burst some bubbles. I am from Maine and I have a set of horns hanging on the wall at my parents house that my dad shot. My grandfather was a registered Maine guide and had a 100 percent success rate on this moose hunts from the day he started guiding them when it became legal to hunt by permit only.
That Moose is a photochop. Look at the shadows, they arent right. YES moose get big, and YES they are some dub ass animals but NO they arent that big. Dad shot his moose with a 300 Savage, 2 shots and 75 yards later the moose was in a pile and then the work began, its a bitch and a half to get them out of the woods unless you know what you are doing and have the proper equipment, WINCHES and LOTS of rope and cable and a couple of snatch blocks, with a trailer. |

You can use all that crap if you want but we just use a neighbor's draft horse. Out of the woods mucho pronto! You can say photochop all you want and maybe it is but the fact is that we do have moose that big up here. I also think that you actually do enjoy bursting bubbles. Just like EVERY single video on Youtube has someone saying "fake" in the comments. |
