When I hunted private land it was just me and one partner. Nobody had hunted it before us. As a matter of fact we were the first ones ever to hunt that ranch. Otherwise I wouldn’t have been interested.
The reason people hunt private is so there are elk to hunt. Elk that are more relaxed than easily accessible public land elk. Private land elk are certainly easy to get on. So you need to make sure they haven’t been hunted to the point of developing the same attitude as public land elk. Otherwise why pay to hunt them?
Once you feel like you’re ready go back and read the PM I sent you. I can definitely help you find an undisturbed place to call home with bulls in the 270-320 class to hunt on your terms. General license areas. No grizzlies.
For $7000 you should be able to go on a quality guided hunt. If you are paying $7000 for access only it damn well better be more than 5 days and better be a sizable piece with little pressure and bunch of elk.Budget is 7k but my original question is what I experienced the normal private land experience...chasing the same herd back and forth on the property or was this an isolated experience due to the amount of cover for the elk.
Thanks for the helpful insight. Btw, I don’t have a pm from you.
