How do you guys feel about the LE muzzy hunt being mostly in Oct this year? Then next year they are proposing to move it up sooner in Sept. Will the Muzzy hunt be a flop this year or will the bulls have a late rut and be screaming their heads off Oct 7th? I'm hoping for a Dutton premium tag this year and I'm going after the one that beat the crap out of stinky's bull.
 
LAST EDITED ON Feb-05-10 AT 09:49AM (MST)[p]I don't know how well I like the muzzy hunt and rifle hunt at the same time (in 2011). Does the DWR have enough officers to check all those kills to see if all the muzzy hunters actually shot their bull with a muzzleloader?

i dont think they'll still be screaming their heads off that far into october but i think the muzzy guys will still catch the tail end of the rut. i think cow calling will do better than bugling during the muzzy hunt, alot of the bulls will be covering ground trying to find their last piece of a$$ for the season.
 
HELL ON WHEELS..thanks for asking but I learned a valuable lesson last year and I will be putting in solo. I'm not guaranteed a tag this year if I go for Dutton premium. Since I believe this will be a OIL tag for me I have decided to hold out and hunt all seasons when I do draw. I have some goals and dreams that I am chasing.
 
i personally think the utardwr is screwing everything up with elk hunting starting with the spike hunts!!!

Utahelk1,
With the technology of the muzzeloaders anymore I wouldn't worry so much about that it's a muzzeloader hunt as much as I would worry about getting a tag. Last few years the muzzy tag holders did fantastic. One good thing about it being later than usual is colder weather.
oh yeah and another thing to remember is thanks to Don Paey UTAH is still one of the only states that hunts a majority of there elk during the rut. We all get too cought up in the rut BS and need to remember we are hunters.
GOOD LUCK!!!
