Hey Guys,
I myself without a elk hunting partner for this fall, I had hunted together with a buddy for the past 5-6 years. The hunts were DIY archery elk hunts with OTC tags in Idaho and Colorado. My partner just got to the point where after merely a day or two of hunting he would give up and expect the elk to walk into the tent and say "shoot me"! All the time spent preparing, drive time, expense of the hunt, etc. and to have a partner that would rather go back into town than hunt, well lets just say it was rather deflating.
I am a serious hunter and prefer backpack hunts, but have used base camps as well, but I find myself faced with potentially going alone this fall and to be honest it is not my preference. The fact of being 5-6 miles in at 10,000 feet and sustain an injury of some sort is somewhat concerning to me and my wife. Also, the fact of packing out an animal alone sounds brutal.
Anyone looking to possibly partner up for a archery elk hunt this fall.
I reside in Michigan
