Hi all,
Myself and a few guys from work are wanting to come out west next fall to rifle hunt for elk. It will be a do-it-yourself hunt so I guess we're basically looking at public land. What state/areas can we be guaranteed a tag(s)? Do any of you westerners have any tips for a few newbies??Any info would be great. This will likely be a once every 5 year trip or something like that, so any information on hotspots would be appreciated. Thanks a bunch.
