Thanks, I spoke with a guide in the Hazard area and he implied the the elk were spooky and it was kind of like shooting running coyotes. In 2016 I drew the same tag and hunted in Inez on private land. We found a 2 cows and a calf at sunrise that we watched feed at 150 yards. We decided it was going to be a hard recovery so we moved on. We came back that evening and one was in a better place so we took her. She turned out to be a 17 year old cow, she ate like 21 year old cow. From the tag in her ear I traced her to Taos New Mexico where she was trapped out of a helicopter in 2001. Some health issues may sideline that guide this season. I will give LMO a call, thanks
