Alaska Moose Hunting Guided moose hunting in Alaska can be a thrill of a lifetime. The hunts take place in September during the start of the rut. Calling a big bull into range is one of the most amazing things you will ever see. It is also one of the most exciting ways of hunting them. The Alaskan moose is the biggest of all moose. Great mass and wide spreads make an awe inspiring site on any trophy room wall.
Moose have to be 50 inches wide or support 4 brow tines in this area to be legal. This helps insure trophy animals for next season and insures that any animal that is legal is a real trophy. It should be said that many hunters feel a moose is a “gimme” animal. This is not the case. Nor is it the case that a bull needs to be 60 inches wide to be a great trophy. The media has promoted this idea to the extent that they have taken something away from the sport of moose hunting. The first bull I ever killed was a young bull standing at 18 yards that I took with a bow on the first day of my first trip. The second bull I killed was a beautiful 56 inch bull that I shot with a .300 Win Mag at less than 100 yards on the second day of my second trip. Not all hunts are that easy. Be assured, a legal bull is a huge animal and to fill your moose tag in the wilds of Alaska will be a feat you will remember for the rest of your life. I recommend a minimum caliber of 30-06 for moose. The shots on moose are typically less than 100 yards. When you are planning a trip like this, it makes a lot of sense to be well practiced at further distances also. A 30-06 is a great weapon for any of the animals you may include on this hunt on a trophy fee basis with the exception of the grizzly bear. If you intend on hunting a grizzly bear at the same time as a moose, a .300 Win Mag should be considered a minimum caliber. Trophy fee options will be applicable only if the Alaska State Game Regulations have open seasons for the species.
I schedule ten days of hunting on a moose hunt. That means you will arrive in camp the day prior to your hunt starting. The hunt plan will have you leaving eleven days later for a total of ten days hunting. Contact me to discuss an Alaskan moose hunt by emailing me or phone at 605-887-3561. If I don’t answer, I am probably hunting. Leave a message and I will return it ASAP. The package price of this hunt and a list of other species available on a trophy fee basis follow:
