Alright so I've archery hunted elk in Colorado 7 different times. Just used 9 points on Unit 49 unsuccessfully. So now I'm back at 0. Either way I'm ready to get back at it. All my hunting buddies are tired of all the hard work and limited success(0 animals harvested). We've all had opportunities but "no cigar". I'm thinking about trying Wyoming or Montana. My problem is now I need a partner and or some help deciding where to go. I know 25contender mentored a guy this year in Montana. I don't need a mentor so much as someone that hunts like I do and is interested in the challenge of backcountry Bowhunting. I have the gear and the experience but I'm looking for new country and a new adventure and possibly a new partner. If anyone is interested in pointing me in a different direction I am here to listen. Wyoming draw is closing in and it appears I may have to sit out a year or two to draw a decent tag there. Willing to do whatever is necessary. My wife wants me to just hire a guide instead of wasting my time and efforts going in cold. This year in CO. I hired a scouting service to help but maybe I need to just buck up and hire an outfitter. I know this still does not guarantee success but what it does do is not waste 2-3 days locating elk if there not vocal. Anyone got any suggestions? Feel free to PM me to. Even if someone is just willing to help me with an outfitter that makes sense for my style. Thanks.
