let her know that the cow elk will leave the herd just before she gives birth. She does this to not draw attention to her newborn calf. The newborn calf is very vulnerable to predators...
This is where you talk to a Hunt Booking Consultant. More than likely you are looking for a species that will be one-and-done, but within a budget constraint.
Western Species will be landowner tags in UT, NM,CO, Outfitter allocated tags in ID, MT.
PLM Elk hunts in CA run about $25K, but you...
It's like being on Linkedin in sales...The more contacts you have, the better chance of meeting someone interested in what you are selling. Every now and then you might get a referral. It's also how you let people know you are in the market. you don't know how many women you know might see...
I've ridden by camps on my way to where I've killed elk. I've also found a backpacker tent in the head of a drainage where I'd killed an elk. He probably could have watched me shoot it. Plenty of stories of deer and elk killed from camp or within view of camp.
My rule of thumb is to camp...
From the camp manager I know I think that is a solid option. I’m basing it on his reputation and the fact that he’s been a repeat manager there for multiple seasons.
UT, NV, CO, NM all have landowner voucher systems. Seems like Hunting Fool is the clearinghouse for a lot of them. That may be your best bet for the options available. I've never done that but that's where I'd start.
I don't like to be around the substance. I don't like the way it smells, and I get irritated with folks who are visibly high.
The issue for me though is that it becomes a lifestyle of escapism. People become less motivated when they frequently partake. They become Hedonistic to the...
Listened to this over a few long drives. Nice light "read/listen" he is the best narrator.
This is a little heavier but instructional
Audible has been a blessing in fitting "reading" into my day.
Many of those will require private land access. Fort Hunter Liggett is a military base so DIY is an option there.
Your best bet in that region is to find an outfitter you like and apply on their recommendations. They may also try to sell you a PLM hunt which is the expensive express lane.
I got my first Elk tag in Idaho while attending college in the 90's. I can say I did not effectively hunt them. I did miss my first elk trotting through the timber in NE Oregon. I had a 8 year hiatus and killed my first elk with a bow called in by my buddy on day 3 of that hunt. In the 18...
Dude you have a storyline of epic proportions. Pitch it to OnX, GOhunt, Eastman's, all the Influencer Bros, etc. ( ok I'm kidding about most of this)
But...you do have a compelling setup to the story, and You might be surprised at the amount of help that will come your way. Just don't get...
So I committed to just accompanying my father this year, no tag for me. I also committed to some financial discipline.
I didn't apply for Utah points this year. In my point bracket, it is not going to be much of a difference at all when I apply in a year or two.
I'm also considering whether...
This is probably the most accurate post I've seen in what my reality is. Of course there is a big difference in Moving as a 20-30-40 or 50 + year old.
I left CA as a teenager and spent my university years in Idaho. 8 years later I was back on the family ranch in CA. 5 years after that I...
Upgraded my Bradley smoker with a new Tempco Element and an Auber PID. IYKYK
Did a pork loin first then tonight smoked a couple Tri-Tips. Normally folks grill them, but I smoked them at 230 for 3 hours. Wrapped them in foil and let them rest for an hour. Vacuum sealed one and froze it...
