Any week you can get off.
By later in the season the bulls can be spooky depending on area drawn.410 the last few years has had alot cow permits issued and that can get the bulls all spooky due to more hunters.
You have a better chance at seeing bigger bulls later in the season cause they have left the cows and are getting bumped around more.That also can be bad cause they will see refuge on private with less huntig pressure or some of the worst country known to man.
Good luck

hey BBJ
We were thinking about the first 12 day of the season. Our thinking was that the bigger bulls have'nthad the hunting pressure on them like they wouldbythe end of the season.

These elk are very familiar with pressure, come bowseason they know something ain't right and you hope that you come across a stupid one. Trust me, they'll be well pressured by the time you get there.
Good Luck and let us know how you all do.
