In 2013 I had the privilege of hunting and killing a moose. Even though the unit was down that year, it was a blast. I learned a lot about hunting moose and wish I had another shot at it with the knowledge I gained. I hunted 16 total days and shot this bull on the second to last night of the hunt. I had hopes for something bigger but it wasn't in the cards for me. This bull ended up being 46 inches wide and I got to kill it with a long time friend of mine by my side which made it awesome. I had always planned on shoulder mounting my bull moose since it is a once in a lifetime hunt, but I am curious to hear from those that have mounted a moose before, so I wanted to pick your brain. What is your experience with a moose you had mounted? I don't live in a big house nor does it have vaulted ceilings. So I'm a little worried about the size. This is one concern of others I have had. Any thoughts regarding mounting a moose would be appreciated. For example, is the size a pain, did you wish you had never had it done, do you wish you had it done but didn't, do you love your moose head, hate it, etc,.
