When is everyone going after elk? (Or have you started already)

[s10]

Hey all!

Just curious to hear from every one if you have started your elk season or when you are going this year? I will be headed out to Colorado for first rifle very soon. Feeling anxious, but prepared. How is everyone feeling about their trip? Let me know!

We went to Oregon for the closing week last week. We had several very close encounters and it was super fun. One of the three of us came to full draw on a cow but she wouldn't step out from behind a thicket of small trees. We had what sounded like mature bulls inside a hundred yards but wind was the topic of most of our failures. After hunting elk for years, this was the first time we have hunted elk in archery season. Needless to say we are hooked. I don't know why it took me so long but better late than never.

Already over. Now I have the next 11 months totally free to fall into a deep, dark pit of despair while anticipating the next one and pretending that staring at onX is a "hobby".

Leave for Wyoming Saturday to chase elk for 16 days. Needless to say I'm not of much use this week.

I'm packing firewood asap for winter.
Have plenty of time til I walk out the door in Dec. for elk to entertain me.

Elk season is always on when you live in elk country, though you may not be hunting them with the intent to fill the freezer, you are always on the hunt to find them!

With that being said my wife has a first rifle elk tag here in Colorado and we both have PLO cow tags that are valid thru January.

This is the bull we are going after for the wife.
