I want to hunt with you!
Take your time when you are out in the field and use your nose & ears. I've bombed all over units, hiking up to 15 miles a day with no success. Last year I spent a weekend scouting and showed up to Elk camp 3 days before the opener. I had 4 areas that looked promising and on opening day we split up and I sat on top of a ridge glassing until I heard some rustling across the ridge and started smelling estrus in the air. I walked about 100 yards until I came across a perfect ambush point and let out a few calls with an arrow nocked... an hour later we had my elk hanging in camp. I learned a lot over my short hunting career, 3 years, but that is the most useful information I have. My brother-in-law and buddy both got shots on Spikes just a few days later by keeping their movements short and listening... Can't wait until September.
