hey johsides did she manage to get a cow or a bull. i think i am going to skip the cow elk hunting for a while and try to go look around next weekend

was up there for a few days two weeks ago it seems to me that the bison do know where they are safe i did see some tracks in the forest but at daylight they moved back on the park. There was one small bull within a few hundred yards of the forest but he seemed to know to just hang out where he was. I am hunting cows and i have seen as i have been told to wait for some snow so i am planning on going up when the snow starts to come in a little more. I did enjoy looking at all the nice bull elk on the forest however. talked with the game and fish on Friday they said the 500 bison that were hanging around kelly have moved 20 miles to the north and are still hanging out on the park.

was there again last week seen a few bulls close to the forest but most are with the herds on the park. The game and fish said that snow is a must and there was hardly any. i am finished looks like i will not get my cow. did see alot of elk however.

They're not on the refuge yet?

Shoot your cow!

Get out there and get it done, did you talk to fish and game? they should give you places to check out that are legal to hunt and not the park and not the refuge...

My dad got his bull early in the season, had it not been for F&G suggesting a spot to check out he probably wouldn't have got a bull at that time of year.

Everytime i have gone i have talked with the game and fish and gone to where they suggested, but they have also said that the bulls will move a little more than the cows and the cows seem to stay put in the park. The last cows killed were over thanksgiving they said possibly there are to many elk hunters on the refuge for the elk to move on there and also there is a lot of feed this year and the weather has really not been good to get them moving.

How late does the season run to?

Good luck, I think you can make it happen, I assume your a resident, so eating the tag won't be as bad as if you were a non-res ($2500) still would hate to not get a buff after finally drawing the tag.

yes i am a resident it has snowed a little the last day so i might try one more time next week if the weahter coperates for me.
