Wasatch Moose!

thecheese · May 20, 2016

Whelp, I never thought I would say this but I actually pulled a Wasatch Moose tag. Needless to say I'm pretty excited. I'm going to try to get it done with my bow. I plan on scouting and researching as much as I can. I'm not super familiar with the unit so any tips or advice would be appreciated. I have a few friends that are familiar with the area and I'm going to put in as much time as possible but would welcome any help I could get.

Thanks

If I had that moose tag I would identify drainages with water and willows and start looking there. I would also become very friendly. You can burn plenty days and petrol without a sighting, but campers/hikers/archery hunters, etc. often spot them in their coming and going. A little curious chit-chat can sometimes lead you to a pot of gold.

Best of luck

Hi thecheese

Congrats on the tag! That will be an awesome hunt. I hunt the Wasatch for deer with my bow, and we usually turn up a couple of decent bulls each year. I will be hunting it again this year, and will keep an eye out for a decent bull. PM me your contact information if you like, and I will let you know when we see a decent bull. Very doable with your bow in my opinion. Good luck, and congrats on the tag

wondering if anyone has any info on the kamas unit?

I had the Kamas tag in 2009, got a 45" wide bull. First thing I would do is buy an any bull elk tag! I didn't and could have killed three different raghorns. Best thing to do is ask every person you see if they have seen any moose. Everybody wants to talk about seeing a moose, even treehuggers! I killed mine on the top of the mountain in sagebrush and quakies. Look everywhere, not just by water and willows.

I hunted the drainages off both sides of the Mirror Lake highway. Saw a couple bulls by Smith-Morehouse reservoir. Saw my bull in Shingle Mill drainage first time, then he crossed the highway and went up high. There was a bull in the campground off Mirror lake highway, about 40" but no palms at all.I may be able to go out with you when the hunt gets closer.
