i've put in for a late archery bull tag in arizona, my home state, this year. i just get tired of playing the waiting game for an early tag. while i've killed a few elk, i'm always looking to learn about hunting and post rut elk behavior.
what's the best strategy here? sit water? spot and stalk? tree stands in travel corridors? i'm the guy that shoots the first thing that presents a shot, so...usually i'm not too picky. i'd hope just to shoot a branch antlered animal. it used to be just put out a bale of hay, and it was a done deal. in more recent years, game and fish have frowned on that, so....that's out.
i know it's a broad topic, so maybe it should be re-phrased, what's been your experience with late archery hunts.
i'm a new member here, so thanks for advice, i'm always looking to learn.
