I thought you were calling it that because it was 80+ degrees out there all the way through October. Shoulda brought my hawaiian shirt out on the general deer hunt. Would have been more comfy. :cautious:
It would be easier that way lol. I am considering the possibility of 50 with the muzzy though if things don't pan out through October. This weekend I am dedicating to trying to fill my deer tag though.
You are correct. That is the unit I am hunting. I didn't really make that articulation clear in regard 50 and 49 but those would only be valid if it was during the muzzleloader portion in early November, which I may consider if nothing else.
The only thing I’m up against is remaining within a mile of private irrigated agricultural land unless I wait for muzzleloader in November. Doesn’t look like there’s too much of that aside from the southernmost part of the unit and there doesn’t seem to be much timber down there.
I have done a little bit of e scouting, I just don’t know what it looks like for elk in those areas this time of year. I might just have to mark a few spots on the map and find out for myself. It’s just a good 5 hour drive each way and I’d rather not do that to spend a day in an area where it...
Dang!! I had a raghorn 5 come in to 40 yards on the last day of season but he wouldn’t walk into any shooting lanes. Could only watch him through thick brush and tree branches and he walked off.
Hey Everyone,
Just a quick recap to elk season so far. Spent September bow hunting and had 3 separate encounters with Bulls but couldn't quite seal the deal. I am 0/8 on my elk attempts so far and looking to take advantage of what little opportunity I have left with my tag. With the bow now...
Congratulations!! I'm in the boat where I have the monkey on my back currently. I have one last chance Saturday at trying to fill my archery elk tag, and then it's on to rifle mule deer for October. Hoping the stars align for one or both of those adventures!
