So, my September is completely shot and I'm debating whether to go the first week of October with a bow or wait till rifle opener. The area I typically bowhunt is very thick and success is dependent on hearing elk. I've never been there in October, so I'm wondering how vocal the elk are typically in early October or if I'm better off waiting till rifle opener. Part of me wants to go bowhunting because of less hunting pressure, but not sure if I'd be wasting my time, so I'm curious what others have to say. This is SW MT by the way.
