RE: PA Elk Hunting??
Ben, your right about the lottery system for the elk permits....I' m not sure how many are available this year. I' m sure someone will let us know. AND, I don' t believe you can sell your permit...but again, unsure. The elk hunt I believe last year was the Mon-Wed the third week of Nov....that is the week after the archery season ends and before the 3 day bear season prior to Thanksgiving. The season is any legal weapon of PA...that would include Centerfire Rifle, Compound bow, Stick bow, Flintlock or Inline Muzzleloader and I believe legal handguns. And, I believe you are right about the strain of elk.....
Please note:....these animals are not truly wild elk, you can virtually walk up to them and unless hunting with a bow or flintlock, it' s not much of a hunt..IMO
