[QUOTE="dicktaylor, post: 154971, member: 8547"] I don't think there will be a problem with the moose. They are a huge target and they won't try to eat you if you have to track them after the shot. The guide will want to get you as close as possible,though,because that's his job. Most sheep are not shot at extreme range. They are spotted from afar and a stalk is planned which keeps you hidden until you are in decent range. Long shots are rather rare and are not favored because wounded rams sometimes run off cliffs and get messed up so badly a taxidermist can't put them back together. Grizzlies are a different matter. The guide will want to get you close enough to be sure you place the shot where it will kill quickly. Guides don't like following up on wounded grizzlies. Enjoy your trip! [/QUOTE]
