1 night hunt - 7 dead moose - 12.5 bags of meat
About this image
I thought that killing 3 moose in 1 area for an entire night was pretty good, but I realize now that this was pathetic.
1 night spent in 1 area (the watchtower nearest to the player's home), 7 moose spawned, 7 moose died.
I did kill one of them with my car unfortunately, so that one only yielded 2 pieces of meat (half a bag).
In the end, there were a total of 12 full bags, and 1 piece of meat (I grilled and ate 1 piece myself), which I sold to Arvo for a total profit of nearly 12000 mk.
I did run out of plastic bags, but luckily I had brought a spare with me, just in case.
And I finally learned how to hunt properly. The watchtower isnt needed at all.
I stay in my pickup truck with the nightvision goggles on the passenger seat. I periodically look around using the goggles. As soon as I either spot a moose or a moose makes a sound, I mentally mark its position using the goggles, and then turn the truck around with the lights on to illuminate the area.
Then remove the goggles, grab the gun from the back of the truck, aim for the head, and GG.
Each moose gives me 8 pieces of meat, so 2 full bags.
Most profitable job ever, in fact, it renders all other jobs in the game pointless and obsolete, at least if we only consider pure profit.
The creator of the Moose Hunter mod, might want to either reduce the amount of moose spawns, or better yet (imo) just reduce the price that Arvo gives you for each kg of moose meat.
Make it so that Arvo pays half of what he currently pays, to balance this out.

If you go moose hunting on Sunday night, then Arvo will leave and you wont make it there to sell to him.
So actual moose hunting needs to happen Friday and Saturday nights.
The important thing is to keep your eyes peeled, because they dont always immediately make a sound (their moo) sometimes they are silent, and they do in fact despawn.
2. You have to be patient. Prepare to spend all night there.
Basically, you begin your shift at 10 PM and finish by 6 AM. It doesnt need to be this whole time though, you obviously have the freedom to spend less time, so less moose in total.
FYI, 8 hours of in game time is 40 mins of real time.
