I have narrowed my search down to these two areas with 5 NR points in the special draw. Has anyone hunted these areas that would be willing to give advise? I should have a better shot at drawing 120 than 11 but I should still have a decent shot at 11. Looking at 120, there is a large amount of private, but there is also some large walk in access areas. Has anyone hunted the public land in 120 that can say if good elk numbers can be found? I am mostly interested in finding decent elk numbers that trophy size. 120 is said to have larger bulls than 11 though. Please share your advise.

Thanks
Bob

Always remember to look at where you would have been in the draw compared to your points LAST year. A common mistake people make is comparing their points in the current year to last year's draw.

This is so true. It gives false hope and is an extremely common mistake.

Elk # 120 is pretty much private where most of the elk are. You have to pay to play. Pretty steep trespass fees, if you can find a place that isn't booked-up already.
