Yeah, I'm not real sure why we came up with booga, booga, booga. I think it's something we say to our little girls when we're playing with them. When I got home that night, I honked the horn and shouted at it first, it wandered onto our lawn, but came right back. So I ran inside, grabbed the camera, took a few shots, then figured, aw what the he!!, and my wife and I scared the beegesus out of it. As for shootin' it, there's a one week season from Nov 21 through Nov 27 for bow and arrow, and I have a cow tag that I won in the annual drawing. That'd be sweet to actually shoot a moose off my porch when the moose is actually ON my porch. Then it's moose jerky for all!!

 

I have this mental image of jdpollen... He knocks up his arrow, takes a deep breath, slowly opens his door, draws back his bow, places the arrow tip 1" away from the hide and 2" behind the front shoulder, he releases and the moose falls.

Then jdpollen says, "Phew, atleast I dont have to drag that heavy SOB any where." and so he dresses and butchers it on his front porch.

 

Abso - freakin' - lutely!!! Usually I'm out in the middle of BFE, down a moose a mile or so from camp, and have to haul that sucker outta there. If I could shoot one on my porch, man, I'd be in seventh heaven!

 

This was just too funny. JD, I had to quote your "booga booga booga" in my signature. I linked it back to this thread so as to give you credit for it.

 

In 1984 I was building a house in rainbow lake, the foundation and floor were done but no walls. I was living in a motor home beside the house. I woke up and found a moose had walked over the floor and broken through, we killed it where the kitchen would later be built.

 

Wasn't booga booga booga and woogity woogity woogity woo a line from some mid 1980's Boogieman flick? It rings a bell for some reason.

 

I've heard them both for as long as I can remember. I can remember my mom using them when she was being silly when I was just a little kid back in the 70's.

 

Actually, now I remember where I heard it from, from a Garfield cartoon back in the eighties. Not real sure why I still remember it, but it worked quite well on moose.

Hey RJS, thanks for the props!!
