Wehaha West A tag info?
« on: June 12, 2009, 09:24:01 PM »
My brother drew Wehaha West A tag.  Anyone get us started on areas to focus our scouting? Figuring it's his tag of a lifetime.  It's the only part of the state I haven't hunted, looking for some initial guidance.

What weapon is that season? The advice to get in shape is the key, not being in shape will ruin your hunt I watched it happen last year on a muzzie tag the country will eat you up in a hurry. You have an awesome tag, talk to the bios and maybe some guys who had the tag last year that are on here. Go scout and you will find elk and plenty of big bulls if you look. nwhunter

Good plan....run 30 miles from now until the season opens, and you may be able to get a raghorn or a little better.  :chuckle:

Where else have you hunted? Maybe you can offer an info sharing session via Private email with a member...?

1.  get in shape
2.  get good optics (binos and scope)
3.  horses or mules would be suggested if you can't get them find 2 or 3 guys that can pack some weight because it could be and long hike out.
congrats great tag, great elk, and lots of land to cover.

Oh definately Bone, it is by far the best road hunt in the state. Trying to hunt down a road in that unit is nearly impossible  :chuckle:

You will die if you are not in shape. Trust me I know.
