I sense some smart a$$ in this post congrats on the tag go get em! if you get one down in a bad spot go shoot a different one! no use sweating over a stupid elk!
now that area is ruined.... now I better head to the blues since Bob ruined my honey hole.
I've attached a map showing the location of the GMU. I wouldn't normally do it, but I also put a star on my "honey hole". Just up the hill from there, wait in the early mornings and evening and you should have some good luck.
So BOb put his star directly on plat's honey hole? What are the odds?!?!

The cow permits are to control elk damage and help out the farmers, so you are pretty much ok going anywhere, as you are doing the landowners a service. All of the LEOs are common sense good old boys and hunters themselves, as long as you have an elk tag they don't care where you take your side by side - especially if you have an elk down, it's an unwritten rule that you can drive anywhere you have to in order to get an elk out - nobody expects you to cut it up and carry it for gosh sakes. If you do have to cut some fences to drive to your elk, it's good country manners to stop by the ranch house and let them know where you cut the fences to get your elk out, so they can get out there and get them patched before their critters wander off. Plus, they might get mad thinking someone was just trespassing, and they'll be pleased to know you are helping out with their elk overpopulation problems. They'll probably shake your hand and offer you a cold one.I highly suggest you don't cut farmers/ranchers fences. That's one of many reasons hunters loose access to land. If I caught anyone cutting mine all hell would break loose, until you pay and build them you'll never understand.
