Moose unit?

[hunterhawk]

I know some here have been lucky enough to draw a moose tag. I usually only put in for points but figured i might as well start putting in for moose.
I would love to get a moose with my bow but have no clue on what are decent units for moose. If anyone feels like pointing me in the right direction feel free to Pm me or post on here if people dont get as mad? I feel like moose is different than people asking about elk but not sure..

Like i said any help is appreciated.

A good place to start is to apply for units with a near 100% success rate. Your chance of drawing a cow tag is greater but unlike elk, bull moose are probably just as easy or easier to locate than cows. Consider too, the location distance from your home and how you can dedicate your time to scout and hunt the entire season.

If you draw a tag I'll be happy to help with tips to make your hunt successful. When hunting bulls during the rut there's a strong element of dangerous game hunting which can be very exciting.

I have seen moose in unit 20 practically every time I go to the mountains for the last 2 years… but I know a few special spots. Maybe they should issue a few more tags for that unit.

Thanks for the tips and help, obviously getting a tag is always a long shot and yeah if i drew a tag i would do plenty of scouting and take off plenty of time, just not many moose in the areas i hunt.. i mean i did see a moose walking across the top of a mountain on my last hunt which i found interesting, but out of the few i have seen i have only seen one i would be willing to shoot and he was in camp :-) but that unit only gives out a few tags.

I live in 20 but was able to hunt both 20 and 29. Now, I think cow tags are limited to one unit. It's a toss up but I'd probably choose 29 over 20 because of access/retrieval issues.

But things could have been much easier during my 2018 hunt when this young bull walked by me about 10-15 feet away. As he walked up the driveway I gave him a bull grunt and he turned around. When I made a cow whine he started walking back toward me. When I let him know I was human and not a cow moose he turned and moved on up canyon.

During my hunt I encountered 19 moose and called in 7 bulls. My most fun hunt ever.

I could possibly draw a cow moose license this year. Cow moose tags aren't limited to once in a lifetime like bull moose are. BTW, we're still eating moose and had moose sausage with eggs this morning, moose summer sausage with wine and cheese this evening, and mooseloaf for dinner.

I see bull and cow moose in 36 literally every year. I've hunted there for about 10 years.

...............Maybe they should issue a few more tags.........

I see them when fishing mountain streams more often than not and each year seems to have more of them. 15 years ago seeing a moose was kind of unique. Now it's a treat when I don't encounter them.

Just put in to hunt the Adams county fairgrounds. No need to go to the mountains for moose when you can get them right here in the suburbs.
