Information on elk points (and questions)

I've been trying to figure out what states to hunt/invest in and I have compiled a short list. I live on the east cost and I basically selected the four closest states to research. I figured that this information may be helpful to others and I've already received so much assistance here that I...

First trip out west!

That sounds like my kind of evening.. Perfect example of why I want to start small with the black tail hunt instead of going straight back country elk while I invest in some bonus/preference points. I'm trying to break myself in; I want to be experienced enough with the other aspects of the...

First trip out west!

Thank you, great advice! I figure setting aside $100-300 a year for preference points in 2-6 states isn't going to be a huge deal. If my schedule cooperates next year, I would rather do rifle over bow for my first trip. I'd be stoked either way though. Anybody have any advice on some sleeping...

Thank you for this information.. If I go out that way I may spend a few nights camping just for the experience and to prepare myself for elk. I didn't think of predator hunting. @BLJ It appears that you need a "small game tag" at least in Nebraska..

I believe in most states you can take predators as a result of big game hunting.. For example where I hunt in NY and NJ, while deer or bear hunting you can take a yote. I believe that Nebraska has a week long OTC rifle season in November. Some states seem to sell tags for the entire season. For...

First trip out west!

I just feel like a 24+ hour drive is a lot to do for a solo hunt. Regardless, I'm going to invest in the points. My mind my chance about that in a year or two. I think I'm going to go with WY and CO--maybe throw UT as well.. $150ish a year seems more than manageable. Let me know what you guys...

First trip out west!

I was thinking of investing in some elk points in WY. The only thing that sucks in my situation is that the guys that I hunt with are either crazy about tree stand hunting for whitetail or wouldn't be up for the 24+ hour drive. I don't know if I can convince them to invest in the preference...

First trip out west!

Hello, long time lurker here.. I mostly hang out on AT because it seems like Rokslide has more guys that hunt out west and I haven't been fortunate enough to make it out there yet. I figured this question may better be suited for Rokslide. I want to make my first trip out west for mulies...
