    If you get away from pressure..... elk will do what elk do and are fairly predictable and easy to find.
    Hunt pressured areas and it is a much tougher proposition to find success.

    When elk get bounced, ESPECIALLY OUT OF THEIR BEDDING AREA, they can easily move 5 to 10 miles to find safety again.
    Get away from pressured areas and focus on locations that boast good habitat and elk should come fairly easily.

    Re: Elk hunters

    If i recall, when my hunting partners and I started hunting elk, it took us 3 years to figure it out and actually connect on a bull. the following 7 seasons we connected on 14 more bulls. After that, things in everyones lives changed and we haven't been on an elk trip in 6 or 7 years now.

    first bull I ever took



    Last bull I took



    Decided its been to long so even if its just local, gonna get the bugle dusted off this year!
