Any great trad elk hunts out there?
« on: January 15, 2010, 09:43:00 PM »
I was trying to find a good trad elk hunt to maybe go on this year or next. Does anyone know of a good place to go? I want to do a guided hunt and not just a drop and hunt type thing.
Thanks

Mark Turner at Rocky Mountain Big Game Adventures (www.rmbga.com) in Colorado is a dedicated stickbow hunter and I believe he has guided several trad. guys to elk, sheep, and mountain lions. Heckuva nice guy to boot. I don't remember what the cost is but I'd give him a shout just to discuss what he has to offer.

Randy Horne at Bar-H Outfitters is a trad hunter and has a excellent track record and high success rate.  You do (though) have to have one or two preference points...depending on the year.

Veterans Hunt in Colorado State Forrest State Park. Around opening weekend. About 25 guys last year and we sponsored 6 returning Veterans. Great time had by all. Low cost DIY around $1000 including out of state tag.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways-BOW in one hand-ARROWS in the other-Body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming-WOO HOO! WHAT A RIDE!

Paul Moore @ W3outfitters/Chuck Davies Guide service. Check him out, great person, honest and even has a trad only reference list 1-877-826-0636
 www.w3outfitters.com  .
Lots of repeat bowhunters go with him every year, says alot about his success, price and hard work if you ask me. Worth at least a call, especially since the call is free.

That's where you go and hunt trad elk.

My best guess would be, an elk hunt using traditional elk.

Which one of us bit?  :confused:

Thanks everyone, Im sure I will come up with something here. And yes, it would be a elk hunt with traditional gear, some guys think you should be able to shoot 50-60 yards, with a compound maybe but with traditional bows....no. So someone that knows trad can maybe set you up for closer shots. Not always I know but it helps if they hunt that way them selfs or understand the limits of trad bows

If your looking for a guided hunt check out Timberline Outfitters NM @ AZ Perry Hunsaker is the owner and is an avid bowhunter(although not trad,Im working on that)I've been hunting w him for 15+yrs.The only drawback is you have to deal with the draw.But when you draw you can rest assured I'll be in camp heck I'll even bring you to some of my favorite honey holes.Shoot me your address and I'll sent you out some info.
