re: Elk hunting tips

One thing I’ve learned about bow hunting elk compared to whitetails is back cover is more important than front cover where it’s somewhat vice versa for for whitetails. If you are lucky enough to experience a bill bugling back to your calls and coming into range on a string it’s an experience like none other. There’s no other better adrenaline rush in all of hunting. If you do have the opportunity get set up in front of the cover and mentally practice all the different scenarios that can play out and mentally practice what you would do. It’s amazing the quick seconds that it takes to happen but it’s something you’ll never forget for as long as you live.

Shot hundreds of whitetail with my bow and some elk with my gun. The 2 experiences I’ve had with elk while bow hunting while clean missing on one and having my arrow deflect off a branch on a 12yd shot we’re 2 experiences I’ll never forget.
