I was blessed to draw a bull elk tag in 072-074 but will get a late start due to uncontrollable circumstances. No opportunity to scout these areas in advance. I've been a resident hunter in NV since '74 and have only hunted the Jarbidge area once,for muleys 20 years ago. Muleys were abundant but...

nenevada Thanks for the PM and real help. I'll let you know how it works out. BUCKnBULL

nenevada, Holy maceral, I went on an antelope bow hunt with my youngest son over the weekend and when I got home found more hits on this posting than I had received in a month. I didn't mean to start a range war. I appreciate your specific information about potenial locations because I don't...

Thanks treedagain, I'll give that a shot

I would visit the area first before investing in a place you want to spend your precious retirement years in. I was there last weekend and found the people in this small town very friendly but the ranch sites really varied from decent to something less than desirable. The town has a very small...

Reddog, Better feedback than a fellow hunter could ever hope for. Usually most hunters won't pinpoint their secret or favorites spots to locate game. Thanks for sharing and I'll definately scout these out well before opening day. BUCKnBULL

Legacy, More great news learning there is a helpful Biologist in that area. Some seem more willing to help than others and if they want to cooperate, their information can be invaluable. I have a friend that is a NV bighorn sheep biologist and is a hunter as well. He'd be the first one I'd...

Woodruffhunter, This is exactly the kind of feedback I had hoped to get. I've revisited areas years later and found similar results. Nothing tops experience, so I'll get good topo maps and try the springs. Much appreciated! HUNTnBULL

I drew the interstate elk hunt, between Box Elder/Pilot Mountain Limited Entry Utah hunt number 328 shared with Nevada elk unit 091. These units are divided by the North/South stateline border and I can hunt either side if necessary. I would appreciate any information from someone with past...

I was blessed by drawing a coveted 091 bull tag. Having 13 bonus points plus this years chance I did what any respectable Nevada hunter should do.... gambled on the tough to draw hunts that had the greater odds of success if drawn. Most would call me a lucky dog since the draw odds were about...

Thanks short mag, Being foreign to this wilderness area, I appreciate any tips even if they are not recent experiences. I did speak to a local from Elk City and he said the forest fires over the past year have left allot of areas black and there was allot of activity in the back country. I'm...

Springbear: I appreciate your sound advice. I also bow hunt so I know they can be restless if there was a lot of pressure in unit 15. My hunting buddy had found a web site that had good pricing for horses where an outfitter near Elk City delivered them similar to a drop camp. Unfortunately he...

Tired of not drawing Nevada for 14 years straight, either out of frustration or possibly desparation, me and my hunting buddy bought Elk City tags on-line in December. As nonresidents it has been impossible to scout ahead of time. We will arrive around October 14th for the antlered, any weapon...
