Thanks for the reply. The picture makes it look big. I had 2 full weeks to hunt and knew of the potential of the district. Small was the description because I have see several 400 class elk their over the years. My family and I hunt deer in 700 every year.
I will take a picture of my wife and kids tag. I think I even still have the letter. The story goes that I applied as a party with my cousin for the rifle either sex tag for 700. We kept my wife and kids off the list with us due to priority point odds. Then when I put in them for the tag I...
I should have stopped at this is public. Part of me could not let it go and part of me was curious. The problem with calling anyone on this situation is time. Your on PTO you only have so many days and out their you are hours from anyone. For example the BLM Ranger would have been a 3 hour...
Thank you. My impression of the situation was that he and his neighbor were both taking guest hunting on public lands. This seem to include providing a vehicle, spraying the fence orange, and running folks off.

380-20 is wonderful tag. As a hunter, it is quite frankly a life changer. I was blessed with being part of taking 3 bulls from this district. In 2011 I ended up taking one during rifle, but hunted for 15 days in bow season. In 2016, I had a two friends that drew the bull tag as a party. We ended...
I have seen a few big bulls that I would range nearing 400. Given the time, at the time I think I can score within 25 points. One bull was the one on the list killed in the musseleshell in November. My dad had drawn the 410-20 tag and we could see the bull on the neibors ranch. 10,000 to hunt...
My experience is opening week, you may get smaller more curious elk. By the time 3rd week roles around the elk are prime rut, but the big bulls are harder to get away from the cows. I am going from the 13th through the 20th.
Good luck
