Excellent Cornbush.
Personally, I think it's awesome that elk herds in general, are exceeding area quotas almost throughout the west. People just have to take the time and put the money out there to get some.
Just to clarify: It is not necessary to pay an outfitter to hunt your/our public lands. Just gotta commit the license price and put in the time to do it.
At a little over 500clams,,anyone can hunt a Rocky Mountain Wapiti in Wyoming.
I have 3 in my freezer right now. probably 250lbs burger, 40lbs of cube steak, 30lbs to can(later), 75lbs breakfast sausage, and at least 25lbs of premium loin steak,as well as some roasts. Pushing 500lbs of clean, lean, healthy protein. Maybe even more..Yummm
