probably call in  another hunter if he's dumb enough to go in there . 

That's not very nice mister, but in the right situation, warranted  :chuckle:  I wonder what the "others" are on the poll?

How will my 2015 elk go down?  Hmm, ill say that ill be a nervous wreck and my arrow will skip off of his whale tail, at which point he will turn tail and sprint off as fast as he can.  In an attempt to put as much distance as possible between himself and the grossly incompetent bowhunter he will fail to notice a rabbit hole in the ground, step in and break his leg.  Ill be back at camp trying to figure out what was wrong with my bow (nothing), and in the meantime a big ol tom cougar will find the injured bull and have himself a nice meal.

Maybe not that exact scenario, but something in that general ballpark.

Thinking a lot of different methods will go down for me.  Spot and stalk, calling, decoy deployment, maybe a natural blind here and there when i find one or can quickly erect one.  Not sure how an elk will die, but i'm hoping one will!
