Oregon Elk Unit

[Short Track]

What is a good unit to draw for in Oregon? Looking for lots of Elk, not a trophy. Small bulls taste better. Moderate terrain is ok. Something with local hotels available.

We don’t talk about units. Per the Rokslide forum rules.

Wyoming 5 points

I have 5 points in Wyoming. Looking for a decent bull, nothing world class. Early Rifle only, as my knees & back are only getting older. I'm thinking I can hold off another year or 2. What unit is good with 6-7 points ??

Ah, yes. That is correct. Good link.

The recommendation for Oregon will therefore be for the same unit as Wyoming:

@Short Track -
Check out unit: 370HSSV.

My fan club is back. Thank you for your continued stalk.

There are no units here that meet your parameters. Good luck

There are premium units you will never draw and units that you can draw that most likely have the lowest success rates in the country.

What you want simply doesn’t exist.

And if it did I surely wouldn’t tell people.

What would be the point of providing you any info?

"I drew 1st week of Rifle. Area 16, not sure if it's 16A or 16D. Tag code Elk 242.
Any one familiar with this area?
What airports are closest?
How is the terrain ?
Odds of harvesting anything ?
Not even sure if this tag is either sex, or Bull only.
All I know it's in the Gila area of NM. Other than that, I'm totally clueless.
Oct 16th weather should be decent, will they be bugling still?"

Almost any tag in the John day drainage will have elk. North side, murders creek, desolation, ochocos silvies, etc. none of those are particularly rough..ne keating, pine creek, chesnimus, look out mountain all have good numbers as well.

If you hunt hard you should have a couple opportunities.

Well it's happened. Oregon is the new Colorado.

210x. Easy draw. Lots of elk. Light pressure. Easy access

3 out of 4 ain't bad. I'd send him one unit south, but I'm an asshole

He asked about draw units

You'd probably have a better chance with elk in the Coast range, vs drawing a 'ok' elk tag in a shitty unit. The coast has some nice Rosie's, but it's not for the faint of heart.

Then you should also be in unit 370HSSV. Go deep!

You need mules to get in deep, but then you deal with all the Outfitters back in there...

Thankfully in Washington we don't have this issue, our OTC elk hunting is so bad we can't pay people to come
