This Fall the guys finally had another set of Moose Licence tags to fill, so Sooley, Maffer, French and Matthew French headed to Maffer's cabin in Tors Cove for the Hunt. After trekking the country on Gully Pond Road on the first day, the guys acted on a tip and set up in a blind on the 2nd day of hunting, right in the middle of a high traffic moose area. License partners Sooley and Maffer manned the blind, while Matthew and French covered more country further in the road looking for small game and birds.

Not having much luck that morning they headed back to the cabin, returning to the area around supper time for the evening hunt. About an hour before dusk Sooley and Maffer spotted a young bull from their blind, waiting for a shot and subsequently missing, Maffer took over and made a successful kill. Phoning French with the news, they got the bikes from the cabin and French soon had the animal dressed and halved. The poor bikes certainly suffered with the heavy load but in true Honda fashion they got the job done.

Back at the cabin, the guys constructed a makeshift hanging rack and got the animal hung and ready for skinning the next day.

Cheers, MIKE
