I've taken 3 elk. 1 cow during a modern tag. First light.
1cow and 1 bull during archery in the evening for both.
This year was on more elk than ever and had seen them in mornings mid day and evenings every day we hunted. But no shot.
Prefer as everyone else does to tag out in morning.

Morning is better for me as mentioned above.  Two of my three last animals were taken just before legal shooting ended.  Where I hunt I do see way, way more elk in the morning but the deer and antelope seem to be more active in the afternoon.  I think it is somewhat regional and depends on what other hunters are doing.

I like evening hunts the best. I would prefer to get a kill in the evening, quartering and skinning  him up while it's starting to cool down and pack all night while it's not 70 degrees out... Get good head lamps and several extra batteries. I go prepared with the possibility of being out there late. be ready for the commitment! :tup:
