Elk season approaches

Post by Centaur » Fri Aug 13, 2021 8:05 am

I have killed a few elk in years past, but have had a long dry spell. I have hunted solely with a longbow for many years, and I have decided that I will use a rifle this year so that my freezer can remember what elk meat is like. I can hunt private land for a cow starting August 15, and it just so happens that I have access to some in good elk country. This will be close range hunting, and I plan on alternating between my 30-30s and 45-70. Looking forward to a carrying a rifle this year; in years past, I could have taken dozens of elk at less than 100 yards had I been armed with a long gun. At my tender age, there aren’t many elk seasons left, and we love eating wapiti.

Love that area of Wyoming up there where you are at. I wish I could convince my wife to go there. Id like to get out of this State. Good luck with the elk hunt.

I never cared for venison much, but Elk is very good. I can eat that.

Cody and Pinedale are a couple of nice towns. Very nice country over there.
