My ex-girlfriends dad told me of a friend of his that drew a unit 072 Bull Elk tag in NEVADA!!!!! This is one of the most coveted areas in the state!!! Chances of drawing are like 1 tag for every 20+ hunters that apply every year!! This is an all puclic land unit, 110,000 acres of which is National Forest Wilderness. That guy put over 400 miles on that truck in the 2 weeks season!!!! He never got out and walked AT ALL!! Lets just say he didn't get an elk that year, and if you want one that will score anywhere near the B&C book, you better get out and walk, thats all there is to it!!!

BTW, 300 acres of land is less than 1/2 square mile, maybe 800yds x 1600 yds at max. That entire area can be seen through binoculars. If there are any elk on that, it would be better to sit on a high point, watch for elk, and put a stock on one that is bedded down. Is the area surrounded by puclic land, as to create a haven for the elk, or is it in an area that has large amounts of private land.
