I would much rather get permission in 305 and hike the same amount of KM but much easier km then in the 400  Im still fairly new at elk hunting, This season being my 3rd, so I am not very picky at all. Wanna fill my freezer hopefully with a bull before the season is out!!
On a side note or an update for my trip today, I had run into 3 small herds, all were deep in the trees, trying to keep out of the wind and snow I assume. All the visible ones were cows, Although after I bumped them (the first herd) to see if there where any animals I didnt see. They went the exact opposite way I wanted them too  But I did see 3 extra sets of tracks walking away, dunno if they were cows too or possibly my elk lmao.
Much better this time out actually seeing some sign so fingers crossed next weekend I can find a bull and put some of that VERY VERY tasty meat in my freezer. I did remember my slingshot this time too, and put the drop on a few ruffies so I didnt come home empty handed for once lol. |
