Buster T,never knew you has been that succesful.
For such a dorky guy thats such a pain in the ass, its surprising isn't it ? I'm actually a pretty decent hunter ......... traditional archery flat out humbled me to be honest with you. Its a totally different ballgame.
All my elk hunts were on public, OTC tag lands, mostly backpack and llamas. My secret is no secret at all - walk until you find elk. Hunt long, hunt hard, find the elk, get in and around them, and eventually you'll find a shot. Sounds too simple, always worked for me. I've got elk hunting stories galore ........ mostly the big ones that got away !@
