First choice rifle elk for me. Pretty stoked for this and hoping this is the year I can ditch my ‘world’s worst elk hunter’ title!

Morning, FNG here. My son drew unit 23, elk, rifle, this year. It will be his first hunt of anything!!! Well, he killed a bunny last fall. He's USMC combat vet.. Anyway, he's letting me go as camp cook. At least I get to go!! I'm in TX so, it kinda hard to help him scout. So far he looking near Dinner Canyon off 288. if y'all can help me help him with info that would be assume. I can't make a new thread as I'm new. If there is another place I should post, please let me know.
Thanks
Casey

Welcome to HT! Other elk hunters will meet up at 4145 State 260 in Star Valley.

Maybe a handle change? “Elk_Shooter?” Kinda pigeon holing yourself there. Congrats on the tag!

0/16 years in NM for multiple species. Tired of waiting so secured a 34 UW LO archery elk tag.

How much did that set you back? Guided?

 

[Redraider7]

1/5 on tags

3rd choice deer tag in a not great unit but this is my first time drawing in a few years from NM. Excited to head out to New Mexico and chase mulies around.

I drew a bull tag as NR, then moved here in July. Actually got 6 landowner tags by Sept, as resident.
Hunted 6a and filled the tag. NR.
Could not give away any of those 1st few years LO tags.

You know you have someplace to dispose of one these days! Will still put in for NM once we move - Caldera for #1, then down your way for 2 and 3. Probably the only tag we will put in for, will consider all a donation to NMGF. Years we don't draw will mean fishing trips to NM during chile season - San Juan of course, need to try the Gila.

Find out in July.
Fall trout & chile. Pretty good plan.

0 for 16 on the apps we didn't draw but thankfully we had a 17th chance in the NM hat. Oldest daughter pulled a NR DIY pool youth rifle bull for 16E. Has taken me most of the week to fully wrap my head around how bad those odds were. Very thankful and already cleared the schedule for early October to give the tag the attention it deserves. New Mexico has been overly generous with us through the years and we're all excited to experience her first elk hunt.
