This September was supposed to be my first Elk hunt. I have been planning, training and saving for an archery Elk hunt in Colorado for a long time, and my brother was on board to join me for the hunt. Unfortunately I got the news last night that he is not going to be able to go in September, but he will be able to go in October. My questions are multi faceted:
1. Do we simply wait until October, even though we will be archery hunting?
2. Do we pick a different state that might be better suited for later archery hunting?
3. Do I hunt solo or with another partner in September?
Some things about me:
I am in good shape, and spend a lot of time hiking in the mountains so I feel confident I can put in the miles. I want to be in big country, this is more about the challenge than killing a monster bull (for me personally), and I know that the probability of me killing a bull is low given that this is my first Elk Hunt.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
