Finally drew a unit 61 deer tag after several years of applying. We scouted the area about six years ago, when we started applying for the unit. We will scout at least two times proir to the hunt. We have the 2nd hunt in mid October. Does anyone have any ideas where to start looking for some of the better bucks?

Thanks,

MDnut,

My Wife and I drew Muzzleloader cow elk tags in 61, in fact we spent last weekend up there playing around. We'll be hunting the north end and bucks are generally smaller than the southern end. If we see some nice ones in September I'll be happy to send the locations on to you and maybe some pictures too.

From what we saw this weekend it should be fairly easy to fill our tags.

Cheers,

BeanMan
 
Paul, We drew with 7 points.

Thanks BeanMan, I will let you know what elk we see in our scouting as well.

I was up in 61 last weekend and saw a nice nontypical and a buck with a 5 pt. right side and the left main beam went out like 3 inches and dropped down and he had a big gourde shaped drop along his face that looked to be 6 or 7 inches around and like 8 or 10 inches long. That thing is gonna be big when he gets done growing this summer. He would be a real freak to put a tag on.
 
I have an archery deer tag for 61 this year. I have hunted 62 a couple of times, but this will be my first time in 61. I would be happy to share some scouting reports if anyone is interested.
 
I will be happy to share some information. We will be scouting next weekend 31st, 1st & 2nd. I will let you know what we see.
