[QUOTE="jpope02, post: 1734288, member: 45873"] I have been on several guided hunts in Alaska with several different guides and have witnessed other hunters flat miss at close ranges. When a trophy presents itself the guide is there to help you collect your trophy. As I understand your guide waved off a shot because of distance. Did he try to get you closer by guiding you closer for a more practical and higher percentage shot and backup you up or not ? Maybe he is a guide that is lazy and did not want to help you field dress and carry your meat out much less stalk for position for the client. Or wanted to save it for himself or the next higher paying party. You weren't there for a nature Hike. You were there for a moose! I have been lucky hiring good guides so far but I'm sure that there are bad ones out there as well. Better luck next time. [/QUOTE]
