Put out a can of Friskies and do that Meow, Meow, Meow, Meow song like the commercial and I bet he comes a running in. Please take video while doing this calling sequence and make sure to repeat every 30 seconds for at least 45 minutes.

I really tried to make it happen with the muzzleloader this last weekend and relocated 4 times to find a spot with good elk sign but unfortunately couldn't make it happen in WA.  Here's my CO bull I shot a few weeks ago though, first bull with my bow and the elk were screaming! I shot him at 22 yards broadside in the lungs and the arrow deflected off a rib and exited at the opposite hip.  After waiting 30 minutes we started tracking him and found him still on his feet but wobbly.  We have him another 90 minutes and found him 120 yards from where I shot him.  295# of boned out meat for 3 miles in the rain made for a great end to the hunt!

Here's my 2022 Muzzleloader Quality elk.  I had a total of 20 points going in to the draw. I went in with a DIY/Public Land attitude and I was able to finally connect on the 7th of 9 days. Up until this point I was averaging 10-12 miles on foot per day.  Shot was 106 yds, with a 290gr Barnes TEZ, 100grains BV of Blackhorn209 through a CVA Optima V2. On another post a gentleman said Muzzleloading elk is the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. He was dead on with that!   (I Blurred the faces of those that I did not ask to post their pictures)
Rough# 350", 60" left main beam, Right side is bladed and not broken.
