<p>Jim "Jerky Jim" Gaboury, right, an 83-year-old Dalton Gardens resident, shot this 800-pound bull moose with a 38-inch rack spread on the east side of Lake Pend Oreille on Sept. 28. "I've been putting in for the lottery (to hunt bull moose) for 25 years," Gaboury said. "I never dreamed that I'd get a chance to go tromping on the hillsides at this age." Idaho residents are allowed to shoot one bull moose in their lifetime.</p>
