Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Deer hunting with an elk and deer tag in pocket

I've hunted deer and elk at the same time. Also hunted bear and elk at the same time.

Time off work comes at a premium with an abrupt end all too soon. Same as animals on public land being pressed by abundant hunters.

In 18 years or so. Having an extra tag only put meat in the freezer from an alternate species twice.

Quite a few years I only put in for elk, opting to forego the deer tag. More meat, and I saw more elk generally in that area than deer.
