    2023 Colorado Elk Hunting E Scouting

    Im glad this thread has helped out people that are in the same boat as me. I was a little nervous even posting but figure what the heck. I've taken advice from several users and and am in the middle of the Treeline Academy course. It has been very helpful in terms of e-scouting and odds...

    2023 Colorado Elk Hunting E Scouting

    I agree with you on splitting up. That is what we did last year and will do again. We mainly split up 2 x 2. I should've been a bit more clear on that maybe. I am liking the idea of each person glassing on their own until we locate elk. Then we can make a play from there or maybe even the...

    I've come across it but haven't paid for anything yet. I might have to bite the bullet.

    Throwing money away at non-resident draws

    I'm just now getting into this preference point game. Apparently, I am late to the game as I am 36 years old and have 1 point in Colorado. I was going to get a point in Wyoming this year but have heard they are changing the rules and it might be a waste. One of my main reasons for enjoying...

    Where are my penny pinchers? Budget time

    This is the answer right here. Something my family is starting to implement and it is so helpful when the time is not there due to sports, etc.

    2023 Colorado Elk Hunting E Scouting

    I appreciate the advice! I feel like i have bought into the e-scouting as a way to locate elk(or any other species for that matter) a bit to much from online hunting gurus and ads. I've been whitetail hunting since I was knee high to a grass hopper, so it is definitely a change of styles...

    My whitetails ways gave me away! It is definitely a mindset I will have to ditch to get after some bulls.

    2023 Colorado Elk Hunting E Scouting

    I appreciate the response. I will definitely utilize this advice this year. One of my main things when looking was, is it worth wasting a day on to find nothing at all. I still might have that mindset when scouting locations but at least I will be able to see an entire area instead of in the...

    2023 Colorado Elk Hunting E Scouting

    I kinda figured that too but without seeing anything I just assumed everything was way higher than we were. We mainly hunted between 8,700 and 9,800ft. The monster peaks that shot above tree line teased me the entire time. Also, I have mapped out a couple loops and am liking that all day...

    2023 Colorado Elk Hunting E Scouting

    Hey Guys, I'm currently planning my second archery elk DIY hunt in Colorado and wanted some input from actual dudes on ways to key in on certain areas when you live out of state through e scouting. I spent hours and hours doing research on e-scouting and then marking waypoints last year in OnX...
