I got really lucky and drew a early rifle tag for Idahos 66-A and 76 it opens Oct 1st.

I know it gets hit really really hard on the archery hunt so I want to start getting to know the area a little better and am hoping that someone would give me some idea of where to start.

And also what to expect quality wise

Also I would like to see what people have been killing on that unit so share some photos

There are two bulls in this photo the one that is European mounted is from this 66a-76 on the bow hunt in '07 I have bow hunted there hard for 6 years there are some bulls bigger than this bull and alot about this size.? You are right this unit gets pounded during the bow hunt it is the most crowded archery elk hunt i've been on but there are alot of bulls.

Congrats on the tag! Have hunted the 66A and 76 several times in archery. Best I've gotten was 330 bull. Would be looking for a solid 300 bull in those units although there will be some better. Archery hunt is crazy with hunters, but elk should settle down some for your hunt. I'm planning on being there in archery season if I can help in any way I will. The elk just get pushed around so much in archery season that you never know where they'll end up. If it were me would try to get there a little early scout and my tactics would be chase bugles call very little elk in those units are wise to calls. Good luck!!!
