If we don't draw, there are a couple late open hunts with lots of tags. There are also lots of hunters which is why we try to draw for an earlier hunt. This year we ran into the migrating herd and 5 of us got 4 cows all the same day. “In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” ― George Orwell It's not over when you lose.

Alaska What I'm sitting on for elk: WYO - 13 pts NV - 13 pts UT - 12 pts CO - 6 pts Only state I could pull for sure would be a CO MZ tag. I don't have an good iron sighted setup and if I travelled, I'd have to find some BH-209 on the road, which would be a BIG risk. If a 'Fire member wanted to do a drop camp MZ elk hunt, I'd be game this year or next. Probably won't put in for WYO. My son and I are thinking about horseback, guided in a wilderness area. WIll apply for NV and UT as always. Apply for top units and get a guide if I draw - too old (59 next fall) to hunt solo.

I don’t blame you! NR fees are high but somewhat in line with most Western states. Just buy an OTC bull tag or leftover cow tag and skip the SG license to qualify for the draw.

There are 5 of us who hunt together. Last year none of us drew. There was a late cow hunt just NW of here with 2500 tags. It was intended to reduce cow numbers. The last week of Nov, 3 went to one area of this unit and 2 of us went to another. There'd been some weather and the elk moved. The 3 ran into them and got 3 elk. They called us and we drove 5o miles, getting there late after noon. I got 1 that day. We ended up with 4 elk for 5 of us, all shot the same day. The hunt did what the F&G intended so for this year they reduced tags from 2500 to 700 and shortened the season from 30 days to 21. We need to decide whether to apply for a draw hunt with an 85% chance of drawing or to hope we can get some of these late tags again. “In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” ― George Orwell It's not over when you lose.
