You have a good year?
Uh, yeah. Sure
well, you sure grew some.
This year we have a moose tag.
A moose.
Yeah. I got
one picked out.
A bull.
I stalked him for two weeks.
Up there.
At the crazies.
Way up.
There's still
plenty of time to scare up
Come on, David.
Put your legs into it.
Let's go!
We're burning daylight.
Remember, David, what did
I tell you about grouse?
I don't know.
Grouse are stupid and slow.
Not like ducks or grebes.
They even sound stupid.
Not like a quail, huh?
Come on. Let's hear
your best quail.
Of course you do.
You were getting good
at it last year.
Louder.
Louder.
Loud enough for me to know
where you are
if we get separated.
It's how hunters say, "I'm here"
without tipping off the prey.
Your mother.
How is she?
Uh, I don't know.
She's... Alright.
Are you friends with her?
Am I friends with her?
Um. Yeah. I guess.
Is she still a beautiful lady?
I don't know.
What do you mean,
you don't know?
Of course you know.
Yeah, she's still a
beautiful lady, I guess.
She tell you
any messages for me?
Yeah. She..
Said that I should..
I should send you her love.
Well, thank you, David.
That's kind of you to say.
The next one's yours.
We're not going home
until you get
your first bird.
Now!
Find him.
Get behind him.
Come on up on him.
Come on up on him.
You blinked.
David! David!
It's alright, relax
and get your dinner.
Come on.
Breathe.
Safety.
Don't close your eyes.
You can't quit.
It's hard, I know.
Then it gets easier.
Alright?
All of a sudden
it gets very easy.
It's not easy.
It'll never be easy.
You'll get a bird.
I know you will.
Just use your muscle memory.
Easy, easy.
You hit him.
- You sure?
- Yeah, I'm sure.
You winged him.
He faltered and dropped.
I don't understand it.
You crippled him.
He couldn't have gone far.
I probably just didn't hit him.
You hit it, David.
I don't know how
you couldn't see that.
You never leave
what you shot behind.
If you had a dog, we could
find it right away.
We had a dog when I was little.
Why don't you have one now?
Since you're..
You know...
Already alone.
Isn't that what dogs are for?
I don't know what
dogs are for, David.
All I know is I don't give
that much love
to a creature
who would only live
a dozen or so years.
That bird must have
run off and hidden itself
to die in the darkness.
I'm sorry.
You used to sleep like a puppy
in the crook of my arm.
I remember that day.
It's like a memory of a memory.
Yeah.
That whole damn set-up
was your mother's idea.
She even got me to put
gunk in my hair.
That's a good picture
of grandpa.
- Did you take that?
- Mm-hmm.
You remember him at all?
Your grandfather?
I remember his funeral.
Oh, wasn't his best day exactly.
That's all I really
remember about him.
That and his face scratching me
when he kissed me.
Oh, yeah.
- Sandpaper.
- Yeah.
He always smelt of pipe tobacco.
Gunpowder.
Jack pine.
What about moose?
Are they stupid and slow,
like grouse?
No.
No, moose are different.
They're regal.
Up in Alaska they get so tall
a grown man can walk
under a moose's belly
Oh, yeah. You'll see.
So... Why kill them then?
If they're so... Royal?
Well, they make 600 pounds
of delicious meat.
A winter's worth.
It is way better than
a Thanksgiving Turkey.
I told mom I'd call her
when I got here.
Well, you won't find
a signal up here.
Should have called her
from town.
About time you cut loose from
