Oh brother, here we go again...  :bash:
you mean the whole if you dont kill it with your club after hiking 500 miles discussion  :dunno: :chuckle: or the my method is better than your method discussion  :dunno: isnt that sort of the same as whose weenie is bigger discussion  :dunno:

Not trying to call anybody out, but most of the cows that I have seen shot in the Winston are within 100 yards of the road.........and there is usually a truck running with the doors open blocking the road.

 I did too. And I really dont know the area at all. My buddy that was going to take me out there is going to be on his submarine at that time. So I guess Im going to have to do alot of scouting. And I'll take all the help I can from people on this site!

Good luck! :tup:

You dont really need to scout, just follow my seven simple rules and I guarantee that you will get a cow: 
1. Find the traffic jam on opening morning heading into the tree farm.
2. Follow the truck traffic up into the woods.
3. Find some timber or reprod to hunt.
4. Get out of your truck. 
5. Let me reiterate, get out of your truck and hit the woods.
6. Shoot an elk.
7. Let the work begin!
You will have no problem finding a cow as long as you follow these simple steps!

All kidding aside, you should tag out fairly easily as long as you dont just want to road hunt. Then again, I have seen quite a few cow shot from the road in the 15 years that I have hunted in there. Good luck!

I would prefer a walk in hunt for sure. I definatly like the gated roads. What road do I use to access the area?

Thanks for the info!

Go to http://www.metskers.com/ and buy a map for like $10 bucks.  Trust me you will want one anyways because there are a ton of roads in the farm and they dont unlock very many gates. There are several different roads in, but most people come in just South of Mossyrock or East of Toledo in the Kid Valley area. 
It doesnt matter were you go in, you will get into elk.
