Wheres the elk?
« on: September 18, 2016, 06:05:42 AM »
Seems quite on here and not many pics.  Is the rut not in full swing yet for the guys out there with struggle sticks?

Thats too bad.  I drew a tag in 340 back in 2012.  It was warm out that year in rifle season

Hopefully they will start talking muzzy season.  Last year they were going crazy at the end.

There was at least a few screaming their faces off and fighting in 340 last weekend.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I was up calling for a buddy in the 667 and had a couple Bulls bugling. They weren't committing to anything though. Watched a bull herd up his cows and kick the crap out of a smaller bull for getting too close.

We are in 340 as well with one bull tag. We haven't heard any bugling and the only thing that has worked so far was a hot estrus call and I got a small 4 to commit and gave my buddy a 20 gd shot which he passed on the first day. I had one other bull hang up then winded us.
Bull tag leaves camp today so now I need to find these dang cows and spikes. Haven't seen any in 6 days of hunting. May head up higher and see what's going on.

I've heard good things about the 328 and 329 this season but I haven't checked for myself...yet.
