Ok guys, I'm back with more questions. I took your previous advice to heart and had a successful weekend of seeing lots of elk. Now I need improvement getting close enough for a shot. Any thoughts / tricks/ tips for getting close? What works when you see animals hanging out in the middle of a clearcut? Maybe you can share a few stories of how you put the sneak on them? Here is a tip I picked up this weekend...one guy I talked with said he's successfully put his bow behind his head, limbs turned up, ducked down and walked in on elk in the middle of a clearcut. Apparently the limbs look like antlers? I've never tried it, but hopefully get a chance in the near future. |

Not sure that would work, would be kinda funny to watch though. |

I would love to see that in action...... :chuckle: |

I have seen this work one time on hunting show. The guide used the tri pod from the camera to get really close to a herd of elk.They use the oars all the time on video's when hunting moose.I don't think it is to far fetched,let us know if it works. |

Try not to look too lifelike...someone might mistake you for an elk :P Watch where the elk enter and exit and try setting up there. Sneaking on them will be a challenge. |
