idgaf Report post Posted June 21 Stay away from the gimmicks. Paint suits, decoys, costumes.( they use to work, but are now overplayed) Find the buck you want to hunt and before season, let it see you and watch its escape route. They have a safe space they run to. Do it from varying distances. If you are hunting a place with a lot of hunters, set up in that escape area that they go to. If you don't have time for that go into the cedars and still hunt them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazymonkey Report post Posted June 22 Usually find them in the same spot in 6 . We usually are looking for elk . They tend to be in a spot where they can see for a very long distance. We have had them come thru our elk camp spot . The picture was from last year's turkey hunt and just out side camp . There usual spot didn't have water so they were outa there normal bowl and up a little higher . As for elk scout and find a water supply and the elk will usually come to you . Buddies had the hunt last year and went 5 for 6 on elk . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
