    Advise for AZ 9pt Elk hunt

    I would go for an early archery hunt if I were you. Bugling bulls are always more fun to hunt and easier to find. With only 9 points you don’t have a lot of good options or even guaranteed draw odds 6a, 7e, 8, 7w, 5B are all good lower tier units but it looks like if you’re a non resident you...

    Elk Noses

    I saw a cow once 800 yards down wind of me feeding lift its head and take off running. Makes you wonder.

    2023 Broadhead Recommendations

    Another vote for the trocar. Average cut and build but they fly amazing. I can shoot them with my field points out of all my bows and long ranges and not see a difference. Slick trick are good flyers too but the blades seem to chip and bend a bit more. I’d shoot either.

    recommend a beginner elk call(s) for me

    I would start with a primos cowgirl, it’s a simple cheap call but me and my family have killed and called in over 40 bull in Colorado otc with that call. It’s not load but great for close encounters. As far as diaphragms calls go a lighter latex is usually easier for a beginner to learn. I would...

    Escape Routes

    A saddle dumping from one valley into another is perfect to sit and wait for elk to get pushed to you. You need something like a saddle or a cut in a cliffed out hillside or a flat area between rockslides to be able to guess where they’re going to ruin through. Otherwise it’s just a guessing game.

    Help for my Dad! Arizona Elk

    Sure hope you guys get some more rain before September! I’ve been told the bulls have short front and tall backs this year up in those parts. Idk how true that is. We’re prepared to sit water but hoping we don’t have to. We’re definitely more of the calling and run and gun type of guys but we do...

    elk calling

    I would definitely take my calls but would probably be a little more timid. Maybe use location bugles if it’s dead just to try and get one to respond and get an idea where he’s at., but I wouldn’t be challenging a bull or laying it on thick unless he’s cutting you off and being dramatic. I’d...

    Best Walkie talkie for long range.

    Wondering if anyone had any input on the best walkie talkies for long range that don’t cost an arm and a leg. Planning an elk hunt in remote country that doesn’t have cell service and we’re needing to be able to communicate. I know I know buy an in reach but we’re not wanting to spend quite...

    Issues with GoHunt

    Crazy fast shipping, Cody from optics is the only guy I’ve talked to and he was nothing but helpful. He surprisingly even steered me to something they didn’t even sell at the time that he said would fit my needs better. I have nothing but respect for him. Idk about the other guys though.

    Arizona elk research and studies?

    Does anyone know of any good studies or resources on Arizona elk herds pertaining to forage and movement? I love geeking out on information but can’t seem to find much on the biology side of Arizona elk herds.

    The dates this year are the latest they get and the moon phase looks good too (even though I don’t put much faith in moon stuff) hopefully they’ll be fired up by the 15th

    Hunting wallows

    I agree that wallows can be really good especially In areas where water isn’t plentiful like Arizona, NM ect. My experience in hunting Colorado is that there’s so many wallows that trying to find one that gets used regularly is tough unless you run cameras or have alot of time to just sit day...

    Help for my Dad! Arizona Elk

    Everyone says that hunting the unit is a good experience. I think all of us have only Elk hunted Colorado OTC so we are curious how this will compare as far as finding Elk in such a big area.

    Help for my Dad! Arizona Elk

    As much as we’d love to go guided it’s just not in the budget for this hunt. We’re all some what experienced elk hunters so hopefully we can find him a nice bull in the two weeks we have. That’s a beautiful bull! Congratulations
