    Solo Bull ‘23

    Makes sense. I am just sick of disposable gloves that rip constantly. Awesome bull!

    Idaho Elk Quality

    It was extremely hard to turn up any bulls over 300" this year. Most of the bulls I saw this year were 5 points or small 6 points. Even during prime rut, these smaller bulls were with the cows. I have a few spots I hang trail cams and have large bulls consistently on camera over the past 5 years...

    New to Calling

    I don't cow call or bugle if I'm sitting water. If I'm moving on the ground, I like a high pitch soft bugle just to get a response. If I can get a response, I go silent and try to slip in range.

    Archery elk hunting Montana grizzly country

    Even if there is a slight chance of running into one, I would prepare as if there are grizz everywhere. I think the 10mm is the perfect choice. Make sure you have good ammo. I like the 200 grain hardcast ammo from Underwood.

    Cow decoy worth it for a solo hunter?

    The Montana cow elk decoys fold up nicely and weigh next to nothing. I always have it my pack. If it can keep the bull distracted for an extra few seconds, its worth packing.

    Let’s see/hear what’s in your quiver this year

    I use the RIP TKO 300 spine v1 arrows. They penetrate so well and are tough arrows. I use the micro hades pro 3 blade 100 grain broadheads because they hit identical to my field points. I carry one arrow in my quiver that has a sevr 1.5 mechanical. I keep this arrow if I need to take a long...

    Trail cams

    I have 4 trail cams up right now. I hung each of them early in June. I will head out in two weeks to check the cams and make a plan on where I want to hunt.

    Frontal shot with a bow

    I'd take a frontal shot at 30 yards or under. Born and Rasied Outdoors and Elk 101 both have videos about how to execute the frontal shot. Can be lethal but can be a huge mistake as well.

    I am 100% certain that animals know what tag you have. Lol pisses me off.

    Wyoming elk questions

    There is a spring that I put a trail camera on. I have found the same bulls use it year after year. One of the bulls has an antler that comes from the middle of his forehead so he is easy to identify. He's been on that camera every year since 2018 from July to August. However, he is a bigger...

    Hunting: “a dying sport”?

    I know a lot of people in Idaho that only hunt when they draw a controlled hunt which drives the applicant numbers higher but doesn't translate into more hunters during the general season. Also, people put themselves in for hunts as well as their spouse, kids, dogs, cats, and elderly neighbor.

    Big Cinnamon Bear

    Great looking bear. If I wasn't so obsessed with elk, I'd like to hunt bears more often.

    Idaho New Tag Allocation - Pressure

    For me, I noticed a drastic decrease in pressure. With that being said, the most popular spots were still busy but it was much easier to find a trailhead with no trucks or campers.
