I drew a tag (3rd choice, first time ever applying) for 4th season rifle- BUT- I'm from Texas and this is my first ever elk hunt. I feel like there will be enough obstacles to face without throwing snow into the mix, and I have ZERO experience with camping and hunting in snow. Any opinions on whether I should return the tag and get an OTC tag for earlier in the year, or should I just do more research and go for it?
