BillyTheKid,
I replied to your PM and any other info you need, just let me know and glad to help. It's a lot of country up there and you'd be surprise where you find them, especially the big bulls. In the mid-1980's, we were hunting deer around the Willows Camp area, up to Harrison and those genes are still there! We took some real good bucks back then and always those big elk too.
The area would be flat and open and then you'd hear them! In those flats and other canyons, the bull ratio is much higher and all you have to do is do some hyper elk calls and other cow sounds and they will come a running and glunking!
Another good area, is just go southwest of Upper Lockwood, there is a fence there and a two tracker road, follow that road south and about 2 or 3 miles, go directly south (you'll have to walk and get a good gps reading) and there are some good bulls in there also.
Upper Lockwood will be on the Kaibab map I believe. All that area south, southwest from there, is really good.
There is a big 400 bull in like the first McClendon tape, "bugling big bulls" they show a bull coming across a flat, and that country looks very south of Dent and Sayer and north west of Upper Lockwood!
One of my friends, he shot a 375 bull and barely hit it on the top of the back and it got away. We got it on film too. Ironic about the whole thing, is that we were chasing another bull the next morning, after we tracked the other bull all the next day and we found an arrow, and it was my buddies! It was like 2 miles from where he shot it. The odds of finding that arrow were huge. It probably just barely got under his hide and fell out, so we knew the bull was going to be okay. He ended getting a 364 bull a day later. That was a fun hunt.
