This will be my 2nd fall elk hunting or hunting at all for that matter. Last year I didn’t get a chance to really do much pre season scouting. Pretty much one day trip. I did a lot of e scouting but This year should allow for multiple trips to scout. I plan to hunt the same area I did last year as I had many close encounters but couldn’t close the deal. Hopefully I’ll also have a partner this season and won’t be solo.
I guess my main questions are what time of year do you typically go scout for fall assuming you only live a couple hours away and don’t have to fly etc to hunt area? What are strategies for scouting in timbered areas that don’t allow much glassing etc? And also when do you typically cut off scouting before season as to not disturb animals before opening day? 1/2 weeks? 1/2 days? I’m in Northern Co archery if that plays any factor. Thanks!!!
