I'm sure that somewhere in this thread it's been mentioned that you need to get away from other hunters.
Years ago a young guy in our church hiked 7 miles into some high mountain lakes where there was rumored to be a good herd. He found them and got a great bull. It took him a few days to pack it out as it was a really rugged trail. I've looked at the lakes on a map and it's a long hard steep hike in.
A few days after he got home, he got a call from the Idaho Fish & Game. They'd spotted him packing out the antlers from a helicopter and had a game warden on the ground go to the trailhead to try to get his pickup license #. They told him that they'd been watching that herd for several years and called him to congratulated him on a nice bull...and to tell him that in those years he was the 1st hunter with the 'nads to go in and get one.

Find two young hunters with strong backs to share your 'wisdom' with.
Hunt where the elk are, #1.
Never give up and just start walking!
