I've been elk hunting since 1985. My only harvest has been one cow. I have hunted with a group of guys who have all taken several bulls. We hunt in the same places. I hunt as hard or harder than most of the group members but still no luck. I still believe persistance will pay off but I am getting very frustrated.
I switched from gun to archery about 4 years ago. I did miss a cow with my bow. I have hired outfitters with worst results than DIY hunts. At least I usually see elk but with my outfitters I saw nothing except elk on other mountain ranges. This year I have two weeks to hunt in Colorado. I am from Florida so pre season scouting is out. I would like any good information on specific places in Colorado. I usually hunt unit 62 but will go someplace else. I will be hunting the last two weeks of the archery season. I am not opposed to using a guide service for information but believe I would prefer a do it yourself hunt.
Thanks for any information
