#1 Elk

Why they are just so majestic and an absolute blast to chase each fall. Not much IMO compares to working them with calls, having a bull respond vocally and in presence to your offerings. Not to mention they our outstanding on the table to boot.

#2 Whitetail
What is not to like about whitetails, awesome animal to hunt

#3 Moose
Much like elk they are something to get working with the call. Contrary to believe a very smart animal just being the king of the deer family not much phases them but they get a wiff of you with them big noses and you can say by just like an elk or whitetail. Hunting them in their terrain takes a lot of planning and effort, once you actually get one the work begins and continues for a long time after the shot and pictures are taken. A lot of great meat off one of these suckers and love it almost as much as elk.

These 3 are really very close in my heart.

#4 Mule Deer
Unpredictable deer, they hate pressure and are very hard to pattern after the first few weeks of sept. Fun to hunt but not in the same league in my m ind as the above 3.
