I am curious what every ones favorite hunts are that they do on a regular basis. After my Sheep hunt in 2018 I would love to do that every year but that ain’t gone happen. As I look forward to next years draws I find myself basing everything off of archery elk hunting. I have a few buddies that...

Very cool. Thanks for sharing. Looks like it was a challenging hunt but what I wouldn’t give to be able to have a 5 week long moose hunt. I am sure the memories you made and the things you saw in that time where fantastic.

440 grain .......... arrow ;) at 279 FPS this year. 45 yard shot and the bull didn’t go 100 yards. I don’t shoot elk with a rifle to often but I have never been let down by 165 grain accubonds outbid my .30-06. They stay together and penetrate great and they fly great too. Photo of my bull last...

Awesome. Those are some monster beams. Great bull

I will plan and scheme and Escout and run draw odds vs trophy potential and look up harvest statistics and change my mind 15 times. Then draw nothing but general deer and elk tags in Wyoming and hunt my usual spots. I do want to check out spring bear this year. I am also hoping my wife ends up...

My 2016 bull is the oldest elk I have ever killed. I didn’t get him aged but I should have. The first ivory is from a young 6 point bull, the second is a 350” bull, and the third is my 2016 bull. His ivory’s were flush with his gums. I have never seen smaller ivory’s on an elk.

Oh I like that idea it would be cool to see the evolution of an elk hunter.

What a great thread. There isn’t much better than a good rifle story. Mine would have to be my one and only hunting rifle. I had grown up shooting the families .243 for back tail and mountain goats on kodiak. When I was 17 I worked all summer saving money, and when I turned 18 i went down to...

For me it really depends on the hunt. Are you in grizzly county? Is there a chance of snow? How do you plan to get an animal out if you kill one? HOw deep in do you plan on going? How Many days do you plan to hunt? What is your fitness level? For me the Break even point is the 4ish mile range...

Congrats! That first photo is epic!

I have a bunch more photos but they might not be what you are looking for. I killed him solo in griz country so I did not take the time to get very nice "trophy" style photos. I will share this one with ya because it makes me smile. My daughter was less impressed with him than I was

Lots of good stuff in this thread guys. Thanks for sharing. My addition is knowing where to set up for calling in elk. Don’t set up behind a tree thinking you will be out of sight, you can never get drawn and get a clear shot. Don’t call in a giant opening, they will likely hold out of...

Here is my 2020 archery bull.

Nice! Do we have to wait for the magazine for a full picture?
