New here, need help!

Recommended Posts

I got a bull elk archery tag in unit 1 and I need some advice.  What bow should I get? It's a late hunt are they still bugling? What broadheads? When should I start practicing?  Is a 380 bull possible?  Where should hunt?  Any help would be appreciated, you can dm your spots so we can keep them secret.  TIA

Your gonna be fine little buddy, just fine! Yes a 3,457” bull is possible, anywhere close to a highway. But watch out for those one horned beasts! They’re small but the eat a lot of the feed elk eat. The one horned suckers are plentiful and out number the elk, sorta like new cwt.com members after elk draw. Be careful of your surroundings and practice killing distancing. Shoot them from at least 8’ away! The new guys, not the elk.

Boots on the ground, get a good map  , maybe a hunting app. Oh ya hunt by the power lines. Optics $10,000 or more should work

That can be a tough hunt depending on the amount of snow.  The bulls are a plenty in there.  Grab a lion tag just in case.

Get on X maps and hunt the southwest corner of the unit keep heading in that direction until you come across the boundary marker for an Indian Reservation hop that fence and hike in about a 200 yards, that's a great area to to start.

Oh for sure. The biggest deer mule bucks an elk hunter could ever imagine.  Look up A3 outfitters, anything they've killed is small compared to the magical hop of that fence.

 Nope. And you need tripod.
