Posted By: 1minute Wyoming Elk Draw - 02/28/17
Now I know what I'll be doing for the last 18 or 19 days of October this coming fall. Hope this year's winter kill is not too heavy.

Just a Gen tag, but we have a good spot where one seldom bumps another hunter.

Good luck out there,

Congrats! What tag did you draw?

Congrats!

I drew in 107 on a type 4 Cow tag. You'd think I drew for a Unit 124 Type 1 as excited as I am!

Always have a back-up plan. Made 4 elk trips last year. There are a limited number of hunting seasons in a lifetime.

I drew my general season bull tag. I am beyond excited!

Congrats to all who drew.

As a Wyoming resident I won't find out until July what tags I get but this guy is on the hit list for this year. I'm not sure why the video quality is so bad but he's probably a 360" or better bull. The season can't come fast enough

Here's his little buddy I took last year.

I might see you up there. I'm hoping for a 007-1 in the resident draw this year, but if that falls through, I'll probably grab a type 6 tag like last year.

I've hunted it four times, most recently in 2015. Here is a two-part episode from that unit that will give you a feel of what to expect.

I also drew a 19-2 tag. Thanks for making so many informative videos! Your information has been very helpful for me being from Illinois. I hope I don't get as much wind as you experienced there.

I am not certain of many things , but in the area south of Casper headed to the Shirley Basin you can almost guarantee a good steady breeze....... laugh laugh laugh

Mountain lion heaven there.

I know ... anything less than 25 mph is probably considered mild.
Posted By: wyoming260 Re: Wyoming Elk Draw - 03/31/17
I did some survey work in Casper. I would say if you could stand up with your feet together it was mild.... LOL ....Seriously though , the afternoons can get a bit blustery. If you are setting up a camp , just keep the wind in mind.....
Posted By: Harmzy Re: Wyoming Elk Draw - 03/31/17
Thanks. I'll have to get in better shape too so that I can hike down wind of the elk instead of trying to pull off one of those cross wind/ Kentucky windage shots!!
