I got my first elk tag last year and harvested an elk with a muzzleloader here in Nevada. We caught just the end of the rut and still had elk bugling. It was a rush. I have two main hunting goals and one of them is to get an elk with my bow.
I’m on the 7 year wait list now here and probably another 7-12 to draw another tag. I’m going to have to look at practicing on some cow elk and look at other states to make that goal happen.
Scent and wind was a learning experience for me. We were closing in on 250 yards on a big bull when we felt the wind change on us. It seemed like the whole mountain side got up. 30-40 cows stood up and started walking over the hill and that bull followed them. They might not be able to see you, but they will smell you.
