Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting elk hunt next year or maybe this year

hey guys i live in nevada and i want to hunt a out of state bull can anyone tell me a good state for elk hunting were it is not really expensive for a out of state tag and it is kinda easy to draw or even better buy it over the counter i am not in it for a 400 class bull a nice rag horn would make me happy just looking for the experience i love to hunt but i can not put in for a bull in nevada for 7 more years thanks guys

Not sure what price range not expensiveis but in Colorado you can purchase an over the counter bull tag for most seasons and it's is valid in almost half of the units. It tuns $554 for bull and $354 for cow licenses. Colorado has one of the highest elk populations in north america. I have never looked at other states to base the price difference for non residents.

Colorado is the most non-resident friendly with unlimited over the counter bull tags, and tons of leftover draw tags every year with some of them being either sex tags so if you don't see the bull you like at least you can go home with some good elk meat. Miles and miles of national forest and wilderness areas to hunt. With 4th season ending sunday most all of the bull hunts are done for the year, all late season tags are cow tags except some private land tags. But good option for next year.

thanks guys and colorado is not to far from me thanks a bunch by any chance do you guys know how much it will cost for the tag and everything
