I drug a bull moose out of a minnesota swamp once.
Good meat but don't shoot em in the swamp.

I've brought home several. I've never drug any game out of the woods, swamp, etc. We cut them up and carry the pieces to where it can be loaded into vehicle. When the parts are hanging, it looks like the belong at the butcher shop. I've done swamps, woods, tundra, mountains, etc. The easiest was on tundra where I was able to back the Jeep with up to the kill spot. The worst was when we had to carry the SOB over the mountain and down the other side.

Why AK residents only?

Why AK residents only?

Alaska for Alaskans, Yankee go home.

Actually, I think it probably has more to do with the cost of paying for a move to Alaska for a non-Alaskan candidate.

I wasn't the idiot who shot him in the swamp. And it was warmm (60f) and the black flies were swarming. Didn't want to expose more meat by quartering.
Hey, who did in the Juneau mayor?
