    Just watched this good oldie. 33 year wait for the tag was somewhat funny for the legend, and you got him on the last day!

    Glad you liked it Paul. Maine moose hunting is world class and I believe non-residents have a better chance to draw as it come from a different pool of permits.

    Great video, I waited 16 years to get my first moose tag in Maine. I also got a Moose in 2013. Somehow Lady Luck has shined on me again. I will give it another try this September in the same place Allagash again for 2019. God Bless and Good Hunting! Maine North Woods Hunter

      How does the license application work? You put one in and when a spot becomes available (even years later), they let you know you can hunt?

    Surprised I missed this one Hal but boy, am I glad I came across this. What an incredible hunt and thanks for sharing it so generously with this excellent video. If it took you 33 years, I suspect this flatlander's chances are, er, less, lol, but this sure gets the blood going. As always, your work combines such a top-notch education with brilliant videography. Thanks, Hal.
    Also nice to see you carrying the 1895, didn't know you used it. I've got my own 50/50, wide meplat 425s, DIY lube, with IMR 4198 and a Leu FX II 2.5x20 ultralight on board, for our northwoods here in WI (and woods anywhere else, was the intention in working this up). Hated scoping it, but eyes are doing what they do!
    Many thanks again and all the best.

    Great video. I hope to get a moose permit in the future and so does my dad. I've hunted grouse all over Maine and never have seen a Spruced grouse while hunting so it's cool to know that they still reside in Maine.

    Congratulations on that whole hunt, Hal. It looks like you're a fellow lefty! That was a very nicely done video, and fun to watch. I especially liked the Hotel Royalex. A bit of an Adirondack touch there!

    Really good stuff.
    I have been a fan of Hal's stuff since picking up his Hunting Big Woods Bucks booklet. Improved my game for sure.
    I am interested in knowing how many sandwiches Hal eats in a typical season.

    Now that's what I call a moose camp, all tents, that's incredible. You wanna get the big ones you got to go where others aren't willing to. For all the people that think noose hunting is only driving dirt roads till you see one, here ya go.

    I don’t understand the non insulated old school rubber boots? Does a guy double up on wool socks? They seem horrible by today’s standards. Or I’m a young 42 year old punk that needs a lesson! Love the content!
