Hunt slower. Went you think your sneaking along at the right speed,  go just a little slower.

Allways make yourself think it's about to happen every second at all times around every corner so u will be ready when  The opportunity comes. Glass a lot.  Walk slow. Stop looking at the tracks on the ground unless ur actively tracking (keep ur eyes looking up)

Do stuff other people won't.  You know the elk are hanging out in a canyon 5 miles from the truck?  Be there at daybreak every day of the season.  But have a plan to get him out when you get him.  Good buddies on speed dial who will come pack when you call are invaluable.  But do the same for them when they need it.

Avoid major human trails/closed roads when possible.  Instead walk 20 yards to the right or left of them.  You will often find a game trail they are using.
