80% of mines are to far gone to be elk habitat ever again and the other 20% will be the same way in 10 years. Nothing but sericia lespedeza and autumn olive mess. You cant see 100 yards. Elk move to better habitat. You couldnt get a shot if they were there. Sericea wont burn well enough to kill...
$4000+!!! These guides are outta control! They make it WAY harder then it should be for everybody else. I heard a story the other day about them running elk off public, onto private on 4 wheelers. Most KY hunters who draw think the guide is part of any elk hunting. One guy told me he thought...
I believe the guides are charging way to much. I cant pay that in KY.
3 hr drive for me. We will do 2 scouting weekends. We drew unit 3. 2nd week bull.

Big advantage of 102 for me was that I could get a reduced price , leftover cow elk license also and this area is beautiful! The Bighorns are always your backdrop while looking for antelope. It is an easy drive into the mountains from anywhere.
What do you think the chances are of harvesting a bull during the first week of the season in the elk refuge?
What do you think the chances are of harvesting a cow during the first week of the season in the elk refuge?
I applied for Pinto Creek. I tried to apply for Duncan Ranch but it was first come first serve on WGFD website for Oct 15 choice and slots were all claimed.! This stuff is not for dummies!
Also I read on one HMA that you can only apply for one HMA? When these permits are drawn is there a...
There are several HMA's in area 7. I believe I must apply for most of them. I assume they have a drawing? Can I apply for all of them?
Are they good places to harvest a cow? I left an email with the biologist but haven't heard back yet.
I was reading about one HMA and it said (Valid for state...
