Nice looking elk! Spent 6 days this out there and came up empty (Probably done until late season). Hunted 560 (4days), 530 (1 day), 572 (1 day), and 510 (1 evening). Yesterday was the closest I came, being that 2 miles from the gate saw a herd of 10-14 elk on private land abutting the timber farm I was hunting. Just wasn't seeing a ton of signs and I put many many miles on my bow this year so far.

They came in 15 minutes after I set the camera and left. We set up there for the two following sunsets and nothing. Friday at 530AM, Carl and I were awaken by a bull bugling right outside our campers. Come 630, not a sign nor a hair. I'm hooked on cams. Next year's going to be a whole new program.
