I am going on my first elk hunt this season...opening week of bow, late August in Colorado. My buddy has been three times before and missed a nice bull last trip. I am realistic knowing my chance for success is slim as I will only have one day to scout and 6-7 days to hunt but heck, ya never know.

Oh yeah, we are doing one of those do-it-yourself hunts(camping, scouting ourselves, etc.), and I will be 51, so.........I gotta get in shape. I am also thinking I need a GPS cause I am not gonna see elk by camp! I just rented 3 elk hunting tapes last night, one by Wayne Carlton.

Any tips, advice......just email me
