Lucky enough to draw the Boulder Early Elk tag from the Expo. No I dont know anyone from SFW
Had a ton of thoughts cross my mind in the past couple weeks on what size bull I would be happy with, when to start scouting, where to even start scouting, if I want to hire a guide, and then remembering I have said I would never hire a guide, etc etc.
I respect a lot of the posters on here, I have been reading for nearly a decade on this forum although I rarely post. Im curious as to what you would all do with the tag I have (knowing I have 0 points in the Elk draw moving forward, and this is probably as close to a once in a lifetime hunt as I may ever have).
Would you go guided? I want my family there (by family I mean my 3 Brothers and father and possibly wife).
I don't know the Mtn, but I have plenty of time to scout and spend time there the next 7 months. I am physically fit, I dont mind going where others wont on foot. I can be there the entire hunt, again, time is not the problem.
Im not asking for handouts either, but in reading posts about the Boulder for the past 10 years in the archives, many posters were willing to point others in the right direction. If anyone has that info and would like to share it, It would be very appreciated.
To say I am excited is an understatement. I just don't want to blow a world class opportunity that might never present itself again.
Thanks in advance.
