I'm flying out to Colorado again, sticking with what I know for now.

I most excited about taking in the views, smells and awesomeness off the Colorado Rockies... getting my first Elk would be really cool too, but memories of a great hunt are more important.

 

[Bails-UK]

In preparation for the hunt I'm doing Shaun-T's Insanity, upper strength on freeweights, running and hikes with 35-40lb backpack. Determination levels are sky high.

Knowledge doesn't necessarily mean success, but it helps, so read, watch and listen to as much advice as possible.

Applied for a muzzleloader mule deer tag in CO. I?ll buy an OTC archery elk tag for the same unit in CO.

I haven?t been out west in 2 years so I?m just excited to see the mountains and hopefully hear some bugles.

In preparation for this fall, I?m hitting th gym. I do elliptical for cardio and lift some weights for arms and legs. As the season gets closer, I?ll start doing a 7 mile route near my house with my pack. I?m also shooting my bow more this year.

Couple of years ago in Idaho. Terry took this pic, I?m not sure if this was the morning we had the bull bugling close but it was a fun trip.

My best advice for someone thinking about elk hunting, just do it. I was given this advice when I was a lot younger and didn?t follow it. I would have loved to been in the mountains when I was younger, skinny and healthier. You?re never promised a tomorrow so just get out there at the first opportunity.

Applied for MT elk and will try ID OTC.  Most excited for MT Archery elk, I have a bull from last year I will be chasing this year.

 

[MTbowhunter1984]

The thing I?m most excited about this year is spending more time with my brothers chasing elk.

 

[Eyeeyecaptain]

Applied for WY, CO, and NM - no go on the WY but hope for the other 2

 

[MTbowhunter1984]

I?m changing up some of my gear this year by jumping all into Subalpine and changing broadheads to Grim Reaper Hades

 

[Eyeeyecaptain]

Most excited to explore some new ground. Have my old backups if it doesn't look good.

 

[MTbowhunter1984]

Good times calling for friends last year.  Had some good success.

 

[MTbowhunter1984]

My one piece of advice is stay mobile.  Keep moving and find elk.

 

[Eyeeyecaptain]

Got a new bow and some new calls. Been watching a ton of videos of elk in the wild just doing their thing. Getting in better shape needs to become a priority here...

Best advice: THE ELK ARE THERE. You may have been walking for days and not seen one yet, but keep your head in it. Always play the wind, always keep stealthy - they may be right over that next ridge. If you let your guard down, you may blow an opportunity and kick yourself for it!!
