So I started hunting last year and I harvested a deer so this year I want to try elk out. For deer season I just went to sportsmanswarehouse and bought a deer tag and went on public land to hunt. My question is, is elk hunting the same? Do I just buy the elk license and get a tag and go find some public land? Or is there a drawing for certain units like in Montana and other states. I'm looking at hunting unit 560 because I'm close by. My other family members also hunt elk so I'm going to talk to them about hunting.
