KS Resident Elk Draw

[LFC911]

Just in case anyone else was wondering when the KS resident elk draw results would be out, i asked the biologist and got the following response... "they hope to do the draw the 7th. It will take about a week to contact successful applicants to make sure they accept, and it should be wrapped up with unsuccessful applicants posted by the 14th. Good luck!"

Appreciate this. I was curious myself as last year they announced the same week as deer/antelope.

no tag here, just another preference point

Sameeeeeeee! One day

 

[Bearded Bowhunter]

Likewise. Statistically, probably will never draw but would be cool to hunt them just 2 hours from home.

Why not? Someone has to get the tag.

I dont have a good reason. Not sure if it's worth starting now or not.

For those of you that have been at it for awhile and getting a little discouraged don't give up. In Nebraska we also have the tough OIL elk draw. I started applying in 1986 the first year of the modern day season finally drew in 2021. I was getting discouraged as well it was worth the wait as I think your Kansas tag will be when you draw it. In the mean time enjoy hunting the neighbors to the West if you can . I hope you guys are able to draw and enjoy your hunt in the next few years. Best of Luck!

Our herd needs new/fresh genetics, they are showing signs of inbreeding. I am headed to Wyoming for a self guided cow hunt with a friend in November. That is a nice bull you got.

Did any of you draw a tag? I’m almost positive I saw a cow in Reno county this weekend on some wiha. The guy that shot one in Jefferson county, saw it, called the warden, bought the resident tag and then shot it. I gotta get out and scout more! lol Then there is this guy.

‘Hey little guy:’ Very rare moose in Kansas caught on video

State wildlife research biologist Matt Peek said the spotting was “very rare.”
