I am going to an area where there are elk, but not that many, no one really hunts them specifically there. We are hunting private land mostly. I hunt out west for deer in November, lot's of road warriors, I find if a guy get's away from the roads a bit there is no shortage of bucks, just have to walk a bit and have some patience.

Yes were looking forward to opening day on Saturday. I'm hoping to close my tag on 350+ elk or maybe just 6x6. Good luck guys, looking forward to the pics on Monday.

Two more nightshifts and I start an 18 day vacation...woohoo.. ;D

Moose opens up on the 24th so we;ll be setting up camp on the 21 or 22.

If you're in the Frypan creek area at that time then stop in for a brew... ;D

Gonna head out to the foothills to chase the elk with the old stick and string.  Should be good now that many of the other hunters will be headed to the mountains for the general season opener.  Found a small herd on Tuesday that had a decent 5X5 in there.  Any legal animal will get it from me though  ;D.  Not quite as picky as Darkwing!  LOL

I'll be in a 6 point zone but yes I'll be picky on "where" I'll pull the trigger. I use to hunt with a guy that shot elk in some tuff spots. 3 days to hump out someone else's elk wasn't my Idea of fun.
