Default Elk Hunting - What time have you gotten Elk opportunities?

What time of day have you had opportunities and/or shot elk during Archery season? Include kills, misses, drew-ons or what you would consider real opportunities.

I have had onlysix real opportunities, three of them draws on elk, at (about) before 6 am, after 7 am, before 8:45 am, about 9:00, about 9:00, and at 10:15 in three seasons. Never even had a sighting in the evening.

One kill, the one after 7.

I see a technical problem - I don't know how to allow multiple votes from one hunter for one time slot. I tried to vote for9 amthree times but I can't vote again after the first one.


Edit - This isn't quite gonna work in the poll format since you can only put one vote in a time slot, so I deleted them all.

How about if you just reply with your answersand we can see them. Thanks

From my only experience, we had our best luck in the evening. Two of us killed bulls in the evening. Probly 7:00 ish, right before dark. I had a couple of sightings in the morning, but no close calls. Could have shot a spike on the first evening, but passed.

One guy had a shot in the morning, not sure what time, late morning I think.

Our group definately had more opportunities in the evening than in the mornings.
