So, first of all my dad has a great elk tag this year. Unit 1 AZ early archery. He drew the tag before me with less points so I'm still salty about that and this will be the only time I bring that up in this thread (Have to vent this).
The time is getting near and I have never been elk hunting before, but we will have plenty of people with lots of experience in our camp. I am not a good caller and have next to no experience with any call outside of a handheld Primos Hoochie Mama. I want to ask you all what are some tips to make sure that we get him the best opportunity at a big bull.
My dad has stated he wants me in his back pocket at all times for the hunt, especially when crunch time gets here, giving him yardages and anything else that moment requires, maybe a squeeze on the hoochie mama.... Now I am trying to figure out what do I do when we are not actively looking/calling for some action.
I know I plan on being up at 3AM to start driving around to try and find some vocal action. But during the day what are some other tips/insight you all have for me?
Thanks in advance!
