Just over a month away until the Winter Draw hunts start on JBER. Anyone hunted this hunt that is willing to share their knowledge and wisdom. Who else drew this hunt this year? I am doing the Disabled Veterans one. Any info on when, where and how to do this hunt would be appreciated. We have been scheduled for orientation on Dec 8. Thanks

I had DM 427 in 2011 and I ended up taking a nice cow on the Bull dog trail on the south side of TA429. We hunted 15 days but saw at least 2 moose every day. They were just being pressured a lot. We also saw several on the main base in TA 418, TA 412 and TA 411. Mostly along Pole Line road. I also saw a few people doing well in TA 430 as well. Just my .02 but I figured I'd throw it out there. Good luck on your hunt!

I took one there several years ago, and helped another fellow get his. Hunt early and late. Hunt all day. I saw more moose later in the season, and that is when I got mine.
Take plenty of rope. You will likely get one close enough to pull it to the road with your vehicle. I used halibut ground line. Had a ramp in the back of my truck and used it to help get it in whole with the come along.Hunt Ethically. Respect the Environment.

I scored yesterday on a big cow. She was the fattest moose I have ever seen. We have been working 425 most. But as said before snow is very loud. I found this girl bedded in some trees off Bulldog midday. When I called in I was told that was only the second moose taken so far. Now just have to get her in the freezer and find one for my hunting partner. Good Luck to everyone.

I have been hunting 425 as well...tons of sign, but not fresh. I also found a knife in the trail...let me know what it is and I will get it back to you..."...and then Jack chopped down the beanstock, adding murder and ecological vandalism to the theft, enticement and vandalism charges already mentioned, but he got away with it and lived happily ever after without so much as a guilty twinge about what he had done. Which proves that you can be excused just about anything if you're a hero, because no one asks the inconvenient questions." Terry Pratchett's The Hogfather

You parking by Ship Creek or coming in from the Muldoon Areas? And all the sign I am seeing is old also."...and then Jack chopped down the beanstock, adding murder and ecological vandalism to the theft, enticement and vandalism charges already mentioned, but he got away with it and lived happily ever after without so much as a guilty twinge about what he had done.
