\"Swede\" said:To persevere is to hang in there when you really want to give up. Stay when hunting is looking futile. I have killed some of my biggest bucks and bulls when I was questioning why I was still wasting my time. I killed one elk in the last hour of the last day.
\"timberland\" said:Take all the factors you have control over out of the equation. Equipment, conditioning, weapon accuracy. You have eleven months to prepare yourself and one month to execute. Make it count.
\"elky McElkerson\" said:number 1?
hunt where there are elk.
Hunt where the elk are. Seems simple...sheesh, yeah right! I hope i have good news after our scouting trip this weekend.\"JohnFitzgerald\" said:Great tips guys/gals. How about some of you new comers? What\'s one tip that you might have picked up that you will make sure to use this season?
\"mtnmutt\" said:I may have learned this one last year. You do not need to go miles from the road to get into elk in a CO OTC area. Last year, all my elk encounters were within 1/4 mile from the road and camp. Do not overlook the close in opportunities. Due to a hip/pelvic issue now, I may have to scale back my hunting distance from a road. I normally prefer the distance between 0.5 to 1.5 miles to avoid seeing other hunters.
