who else is hearing the seductive call of elk season?

[addicted2hunting]

September is drawing so close! I cant stop thinking about it! Its all I can think about!

[Bookworm007]

Same here, keep checking google maps, wanting special draws to come out, and to torture myself further I set my trail camera so now I am waiting till I can go back and check what I got! But very soon it will be that time of year again!!

I'm still fairly new to this state and I'm wanting to try elk hunting.  Anyone recommend where to start or any advice?

I'm more excited about this year's archery elk/deer than I've been in years.

Elk hunting is how I get my fix!!!  To hell with crack!

I've been feeling it for quite a while. I've been pouring over my old maps and looking through all of my notes. I've been chasing what I think is the same bull in the same drainage for the last two years. I've seen him both years and had one solid chance I wish I would have taken. This year I'm going harder and for longer. I'm just hoping he made it through the winter.

My wife and kid are. I just got my first Phelps elk call. Ha ha!!

I'm with ya on the elk thoughts! The last few years probably more, when we are leaving we are planning the next years hunt. And it never quits either. The wife is into very much but she can be telling me something anything and I'll pop up with some thought about elk camp and she will ask is that all you think about? I tell her do you want to kill elk? She says hell yes! Then I tell her we must plan to improve our operation at all times of the year to be successful! Even when she talks about planting flowers!

I hear it year 'round. I started my workouts on June 3rd. Riding the bike at least 40 miles/wk and going to the gym. Need to take off some of that cheesecake from Christmas finally. I'll get there.

I HATE ELK HUNTING!  I think I'm going to hang it up this year.....said by me never.

For me it never goes away.  As soon as season is over its back in the gym.  I workout year round, always tinkering with calls in the off-season, going to trade shows in the winter, upgrade gear, tinker with bow, shoot the bow, etc....   My wife thinks I have a problem

Only 76 days and 16 hours until September 3.
