less than a week away - they are out there and they are talking.
got out for a few hours after work and managed to hear at least three differen bulls and walked up a nice one in the timber with a group of cows.

 

[Epfd217]

[Kiwi]

I hear ya, I've been pretty much worthless for 2 weeks lately, My mind just says "elk, elk, elk, elk, elk, elk......


I've got 9 wake ups till im pointing west and then IDAHO here I come!

 

[MNElkNut]

9 wake ups for me too! They say men think about sex every seven seconds, right? So if I think about elk 4 times every 7 seconds, that leaves about 2 seconds out of 7 for the rest of my life....which is about the right ratio...

18 days for this guy. Can hardly wait!

I work straight through from now till next Friday, then the Ram 2500 is headed east. It's getting very hard to focus.....

Thanks to fire my moose hunt this weekend has been cancelled. Thank God for Montana where I can quickly call and audible and hunt elk this weekend instead.

All I can think about in class at Tech is "only a couple more days" "I wonder if they'll be talking saturday?" "Do I have all my gear?" "Elk elk elk elk " needless to say school is rough this week!

Anyone else seeing bulls grouped with cows or bulls making noise?

 

[Festus]

Elk. 8 days for me! Elk, elk.
NO work being done. Elk. Very little sleep getting done. Elk.
Elk, elk, elk.........

I havent seen any grouped up by Butte but I've only been out a couple times recently. Went out last night and saw a group of only cows and calves and didn't hear any talking.

 

[Baz55]

I'm leaving in 8 days for my first elk hunt. Couldn't be more excited! Can't wait to hear that first bugle! Good luck to you!

I'm lucky enough that I can be in the country within 1/2 an hour of leaving my desk. In fact two years ago my son shot an elk on a ridge I can see from my desk. I spent 4 years in MI during college, so for those of you live in the Midwest, I feel your pain. I also admire the dedication of the guys who drive here from out of state and get it done with a bow. Good luck all.

14 days and counting...

 

[Elkoholic]

0 wake ups for me, I'll put in a very unproductive day in the office today and start heading west about 1:30pm. Good luck to everyone and stay safe!
