Need some advice from you backcountry elk slayers
1. Calling won’t hurt you that time of year, but don’t be surprised if you don’t hear any talking then. 2. Kill it. Hang it. Make trips. I would bone it out after it hangs- Duckdude10

Archery Elk Hunting - Media Tactics vs Reality
Call if they aren’t talking. Shut up when they are. That is my rule of thumb. However this is depending on the area as well. If a bull is alone and calling, then we bugle back to get him fired up and looking for a fight- Duckdude10

What is your cooler set up for elk?
Find a place in town you can come off the mountain and pay to hang your meat. Will give you peace of mind knowing your elk won’t spoil.- Duckdude10

Duck hunting advice for a beginner
We have used a kayak before. Just cover it with burlap or spray paint it camo. You don’t need an expensive one if you are just using it to retrieve. Sometimes we get in our kayaks and sit in the reeds with makeshifts blinds. You’ll be able to access parts of the lake/pond you couldn’t otherwise- Duckdude10

Getting the most out of Public Land.
Move through the thick forests slowly and methodically once you get into an area off the trail a ways. Walk 20 yards, stop and listen for 30 seconds - rinse and repeat. You will see more animals if you move slowly and attentively. I grew up hunting west of the cascades and this is all about you...- Duckdude10

Relocation advice
Port Orford is amazing. Hunt over there for bears and Elk, great steelhead fishing as well. Not touristy at all.- Duckdude10
