Brenda's Bull
73-year-old Maine woman bags thousand-pound moose.
 73-year-old Brenda Smith proved that you’re only as old as you feel this past September when she bagged a bull moose that weighed close to 1,000 pounds near her home in Ashland, Maine. The kill would be impressive for a person of any age, but the fact that Brenda had been fighting a nagging shoulder injury for a long time, and that the kill shot was taken at nearly 300 yards—uphill—makes her story even more extraordinary.

That is a very nice moose. Congratulations on a hunt well done. That is AWESOME!!!
congratulations
What the heck is in the trailer and on the ground in the background of photo 12? It's a shame the rack wasn't biiger for such a brute. Way to go!!!!!!!
A great, humble ambassador for the sport. Beautiful moose.
great pics, nice bull.
I'd like to see her drag that to the truck!
That's awesome
Ashland is only a few hours north of me
Brenda Smith I hope you have that moose mounted and displayed in your home. Your story and the moose head should be pasted from generation to generation of your family. Name the big guy and both of you will be called by name 80 years from today.
I just noticed 'pasted' should be passed...too tired to focus.. I spent the night in moose country of Northern Alberta but I wasn't hunting. The mud was deep and the triple rail tire chains on the tandem truck were working hard. I barely got out of the bush. That kind of work should be reserved for a great moose hunt with a trophy like yours to show for it. That would be a better payoff then $$$!
I apply for a non-resident Maine moose permit year after year after year, and this has been going on for close to twenty years, and all to no avail.
Each year when I check the Maine site and find out I didn't draw a permit, after uttering several expletives, I also wonder if I'll be too old to go should I ever draw one......apparently not !
Nicely done, Brenda !
