Best first elk hunt for newbies, non-resident Wyoming.

Currently don’t have the extra time or funds to make a dedicated scouting trip.

I’m actually terrible with this.
I agree with Dos Perros that a scouting trip would undoubtedly up your odds of being successful.
But if I have an extra week of PTO, I plan a second separate hunting trip haha

I like to take advantage of those three or four day weekends...Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, so it doesn't cost me any PTO. We will drive 21 hours vs flying if it means one more glassing session...so leave after work on Friday or whatever means we can be glassing Saturday evening. Then two more glassing sessions Sunday, and finish up on Monday morning, and then beat feet home 21 hours. Get home exhausted but with pics and videos and OnX pins to make it worth it. Sure beats painting a fence or hanging out with the in-laws!
