Thanks for the info. I don't think a complete DYI hunt is what I'm going to be looking for for my first attempt because I'm smart enough to know that I don't have a clue what to look for other than wonder around looking for elk. So one of these "meat hunts" might be a first step to be able to talk to and learn from guides and others who do it every day. I also don't expect to get to do it in 2023 and was planning on 2024 season. So I'm starting my information gathering now.
