    Ha ha. That's awesome! I've used a short reed goose call to shock gobble birds. Might have to get out the duck call and open up with a hail call, see what happens!

    Elk hunt near Darby, Montana

    That's it man! Thanks for the memory jog. I attended that school in '01. So it's been a minute. Scott was still the main teacher. I'm pretty sure one of his guides that helped out with our class runs it now. I think his name is Robert. Ahhh........memories

    Elk hunt near Darby, Montana

    What year? I know the trailhead they hold the school out of also doubles as the "section" they outfit on during the season. So your chances of encountering a guided party would increase.

    Elk hunt near Darby, Montana

    I went to guide school around Darby. Beautiful country. We were a few miles up the road from what seemed to be a service camp for kids at that time. I've pondered going back but the Wolves always come into play. Let us know how it works out for you. Best of luck!

    Antelope spot and stalk archery tips and tricks

    Antelope spot and stalk archery tips and tricks

    Get on them before they get pressured. I think given my same scernio after antelope have a few encounters or even one encounter with a hunter would yield different results. The tolerance for mistakes goes down dramatically.

    Advice on This Year's Hunt - Unit 18 - Do I cancel?

    I would go solo. It sounds like you've done your prep work, why waste it? I also wouldn't worry about bears. I have hunted in high density areas for bears and haven't even laid eyes on one (I've also camped in grizzly country and taken all the precautions). Black bears I don't worry about. Brown...

    So you want to pack hunt Colorado...

    Only 26 miles? Have you ever hunted elk before? You got to get deep my man! Way deep. You gotta leave the trailhead at least a week before season opens to get in the right spot.
