I hunted opening weekend and saw 3 elk, all cows. I was in a spike only unit... Wind was blowing crazy all day Saturday. The bulls sure were screaming all night long. That was awesome! I wish I had more time to hunt but looks like weekend hunts for me for the early season. |

It was good thanks! 7 hunters in our camp this year, opening day one friend took a 4x5 at 45 yards, and my cousin took his first elk with his bow, a cow at 40 yards, everyone else saw elk except one guy. I saw a small herd of 7, pulled back on a cow at 25 yards, put my finger on the release and she stepped behind a tree, no shot and could not catch up to them. Busted a small group later, twice, never saw them. Jumped a rag horn bull on the way back to the truck, FREIGHT TRAIN!! no stopping him. Pics soon to come! Jason |

Finnman sounds like your group had pretty good success. Since the cows were taken out of 328 our group has really gotten small. Rewent- I have the same issue, looking for better spots. I'm going to try the Tanuem 336 maybe this weekend. I know I want to be in a cow or spike unit. Hunting in spike only is sure tuff. |
