Default what to do

If you had a choice of hunting caribou in canada or an elk hunt which would you pick. The caribou would be gun and elk would be bow. The elk hunt would be one of the cheaper ones I could find but and elk hunt is an elk hunt. thanks for all...............Mitch

Do I have to pick just one??? Well, I guess I would go for the elk hunt. I want to shoot an elk with my bow so badly I can't stand it. You know, it don't even have to have horns, I just want one!!!

i would love to do either. all i've hunted is deer, turkey, and hog. but right at the momment i'm not that proficient with my bow. so at the present momment i would choose the caribou. if i had time to get used to my new bow i would pick the elk.

I would also have also have to say a Elk Hunt. Never hunted Elk or Caribou or any big game for that matter lol. This will be my first year going on a white-tail hunt but i would love to do an Elk hunt.

I got the green light from the wife for the caribou, but being greedy and all I was trying to think of a way to sway it to an elk hunt. The elk would cost more money and all. For those that have done either hunt, what to do?

For me, Id do the carabo. Just because I have a better chance at going on an elk hunt, but a carabo hunt is rather far out there for me.

Elk by bow!!!!!!!!!!!!! caribou hunting is gay you walk up to em and shoot em or you sit 500 yards away and watch 40 0r 50 go by and shoot the one you want to me its like hunting cows. I enjoy Elk hunting by bow far more well I wont even consider a caribou hunt.

I'd have to take the bowhunting on elk. Much better scenery on an elk hunt also.

What state would you hunt elk in??
