Title: I need advice
Post by: robescc on November 27, 2009, 05:56:27 PM: Hello all. I got the news last monday that I am laid off for the next few weeks. I think it will be the next few months. :bash:
I want to put some meat in the freezer. I just bought my muzzy elk tag and have no idea where to go. I am not picky and would more than happy with a cow. I know its getting close to the end of the season but I need some advise on where to go. I am not looking for anyones honey hole. Just an area. Any advise would be appreciated.

There are a few but they mostly are made up of private land with difficult access and in some cases very few elk in the unit, except in very specific areas, which without a lot of pre-season scouting you will not be able to find, and even if you did chances are the elk would be on private land where hunting is not allowed. The one I would probably recommend would be the Lincoln unit. There are a few elk in there and much of the unit is Weyerhaeuser or State, so you've got good access but good luck finding the elk. If I knew where they were I'd be hunting there myself. Good luck. If I were you I'd look at this season more as just pre-season scouting for next year.
