PIC OF THE WEEK:
This week’s "Pic of the Week" is Riley Delzer on a do-it-yourself moose hunt in Alaska! Riley was joined by his dad Jay and his Uncle Brent, with what turned out to be quite the adventure. Flying in on a bush plane was exciting enough, but they also spotted 3 bulls and a cow on the way to their campsite. The guys decided to camp out in a small, 4 man tent and lug their gear closer to where they had seen the animals. They hiked through multiple ravines and creeks to find a cliff that would give them an overlook on what they called a blueberry meadow. It took until day 3 to finally get into the position of where the moose seemed to congregate. Their shooting cliff offered openings from 400-700 yards but needed some brush removal to make it worthy. Two minutes after sitting down from cutting, Riley spotted the white paddles of a large bull making his way into the meadow! The bull was traveling with another bull and 4 cows creating even more excitement. Riley had the bull in view at 480 yards and wouldn’t you know, the bull laid down in the shade! Two and a half long hours later he stood up and moved another 40 yards. Riley was ready to take the shot, but Uncle Brent was trying to film his hunt and wasn’t on the target bull. The bull laid down again there for another 3 hours giving Riley time to fill his head with all that could go wrong! Finally the bull stood up, stepped out of the brush, and Riley made the 480 yard shot with his 7mmPRC hitting the great animal broadside. One more quick shot and his Alaska dream bull was down! Riley was filled with almost indescribable emotions of joy and accomplishment. Fortunately, even though four miles from camp, to the group's relief their pilot was able to land three quarters of a mile from the kill site! Congratulations Riley on your Alaska dream hunt!
