I think I might just be the weird guy in the bunch. I went on my first elk hunt last year. Never even gave a thought to going solo. From day one I always knew I would be going all alone. I know weird right.
Like everyone has already stated, planning is everything. I didn't kill a bull on my first trip, I had severaal opportunities but only two slam dunks at bulls. Both times I let down, one was almost to far to pack out solo but extremely to hot to try. The other was extremely to far to pack one out solo from the trailhead I was parked at. I had a blast all by myself and will be going it alone again this Sept. Yup I'm the weirdo in the room and I don't care.
