We spooked some elk before legal shooting light one morning, but only saw the few bulls in the herd, the cows had disappeared into the thickets. We agreed to do a hunt with no more than 400 tags in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Don Martin Report post Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) Well we assisted three hunters=one juniors-two adults and got three cows! I'm just gonna say that we didn't hunt in the areas others here are saying you'll find elk. We glassed up every elk herd we found, and some were over two miles away! Never did any "blind hikes!" Tough hunt for those that don't do a lot of hunting up there. I've been hunting on the Boquillas since 1972 so got a "feel" for the elk there. I agree there are too many tags in this unit.. I have no issues with the kid's hunts, but for the AZGFD it is a money maker! The quality of the bulls have gone way down over the last 10 years too, but we saw a number of 6x6's in the herds we hunted. If anyone knows someone with a late rifle bull or muzzleloader hunt tell them to call me. We offer 2x1 hunts for $2200 ($1100 each) and have almost 100% success. I don't really care for the late antlerless hunts, cows are pregnant, and it is a lot tougher to find the herds. Here is what we got in October. We do juniors hunts for less..
