but that's ok. 
What an animal - congrats mate!!! I want the details mate and some more photos of the moose and one with ya bow in the photo if you have one please. They truly are a massive animal. 
Not too much of a tale. One of the guys tagged an almost clone of this one earlier in the week so I was prowling the end of the lake where he got his, looking for another. The rut really hadn't started so calling wasn't being as effective as I had hoped. This evening a mate had taken the canoe down to the end and had been calling for about an hour. I saw something out of place about 200m in the timber and when I put the bino's on it it grew antlers. He was looking and moving slowly towards the lake but away from me so I hauled it through the timber until I figured I was close. Then sat and listened and watched. For a big animal they can be really quiet in the bush but finally I caught movement about 50 m away. I had the wind so I crept closer, trying to angle into him. Finally I thought I was as close as I was going to get and when he moved into a shooting lane the brain said go and an arrow went. The hit looked good and he headed off towards a big meadow. Left him for about 1/2 an hour then went an found him piled up, went maybe a 100 m. 
We managed to get quads into him but we were going to run out of light so just got a move on getting him out. What poundage bow, arrow and broadhead combo did you use? They are a big animal. I used my Chekmate which is about 56# at my draw (30"), bamboo arrows, rosewood self nock and a tusker broad head. Runs about 730 gr in weight. The arrow in the pictures above is my grouse arrow- yellow cedar with full size feathers and a field point. 
I used Bamboo arras last hunt also and they worked great. They were 700 plus grains as well.
