Congratulations on your successful elk hunt. Sometimes I read about the hunts you guys in other states come up with and I just shake my head. That hunt would never occur anywhere I've hunted in Oregon. I lead a sheltered life.
I don't get it...
Elk hunting in Oregon is a nightmare. I won't go into all the details but I'll just say that everything is stacked against hunters. The success rate verifies the level of difficulty.
