Where are you hunting Elk in 2020? Rifle, ML, or Bow?

[Bagel_7]

Idaho - rifle
This will be my first elk tag ever!

 

[Roughwater]

Montana Bow Elk/Deer combo if I draw general tag. If I don't succeed at getting a Elk with the bow I may stay and hunt rifle. If I don't draw I'm really not sure what state but I'll hunt somewhere out west if Health holds up (I'm 70).
My wife is into the Bachelor show that's playing as I write this. I somehow got drawn into it. Peter proposed then reneged on his proposal but I know he's not the first Peter to be unsure about what he wants.

Washington ML. First year doing this after about 22 yr modern. Mixed feelings at this point. Excited to try something new, but nervous for the same reasons. Should be fun either way though.

Oregon OTC Blacktail
Oregon OTC Cascade elk

 

[BuzzH]

Usual 3 tags in Wyoming...one bull, 2 cow tags.

Will apply for an elk b in Montana, can buy a general NR OTC since I'm native, but wont.

Applied for UT/NV/CO/AZ all long odds stuff (no dice in AZ).

I think you'll love it - way less of a zoo and on the West side, not much of a penalty having a shorter range (at least the thickets I'm hunting). This years ML dates in WA are good too - earlier than the past few.

Washington Archery for me... but fingers crossed for a multi-season tag!

Muzzy le Utah elk after 20yrs hopefully

 

[Blackstorm]

Colorado Draw rifle

 

[Huntnnw]

For sure is WA muzzy elk and ID elk. Waiting on UT and NV

 

[ForrestHorsehunter]

Colorado bow. Idaho rifle

 

[dirtytough]

Should draw Wyoming. I have/will have apps in for UT, NM, NV, and maybe ID depending on if I apply for deer/elk or sheep. Colorado I'll apply but pretty sure there won't be a chance yet unless the unit drops a couple points.

 

[Kimber7man]

Wyoming cow with rifle for me!

 

[Bowtechshooter]

Idaho Bow & Oregon Bow both for Elk

 

[cmbbulldog]

Plan is archery in AZ, rifle in CO and archery in NM

 

[gabowhuntnfool]

Colorado Archery Hopefully this the year to fill my tag.

 

[trophyhill]

I'm in for NM, and it looks like I'll be hunting OTC CO. When I checked my points, I'm 1 short of drawing my preferred unit. The perfect scenario is drawing NM and hunting CO every day I'm not hunting NM. I found out earlier in the week, that we landed a school project in CO 30 minutes from the elkwoods I cut my teeth in. Needless to say, I bet my work hours are something like 6 - 2:30 come September with Fridays off there's also a 17% chance of drawing deer without a point. And there are some biguns in there bow

3 tags in Wyoming as well, bull and 2 cows. We'll archery hunt then take out the rifles for our cows, and the bull if that doesn't pan out in archery season.
Probably get a bear tag this year as we saw lots of bear sign and bears last fall hunting elk.

NM if i draw that lightning in a bottle hunt or CO OTC in my old home town. Good luck everyone!!
