I've scoured over the internet and there isn't much out there for this area other than a lot of private land, and that it is open/desert country. I've talked with a Warden, and he confirmed my thoughts so far but says there are elk to be killed there and that it may be tough with a bow. Should be fun for a first elk hunt regardless, but loads of questions so far in planning.
Who all has hunted this type of terrain for elk?
Thoughts, opinions, tips for getting close?
How will they respond to calling with it being so open?
Absolutely anything else that you think may pertain to my hunt.
I'm only a few days in, but as of now I'll be arriving a day before the season starts and then hunting the next 10 days. My buddy is still going to tag along as a spotter, the words "elk meat" were all it took to convince him! If I somehow kill early, we'll go chase something on an OTC tag.
Thanks in advance, and feel free to PM me if you want to keep some stuff off the web.
