Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting Help with late season elk stategy

I would start with talking with game department biologists for the area you want to hunt. Some are very helpful. Start looking at harvest statistics for the area and numbers of hunters pounding the area. I would talk to some outfitters in the area to get a feel for the success rates and cost. I would wonder why it took 10 preference points to draw and now only three unless it is a bonus point or hybrid draw. If there area fewer resident applications or an increase in tags that might tell you something.
