I hunted last year with double d on the x bar 1. Should have went archery, but i turned in for the rifle hunt and used a muzzleloader. The elk were done bugling as the rifle hunt in the limited opp areas is a full week behind the early rifle hunts. The ranch they hunt has monster bulls on it. Doc Meyers killed a 440, the week before i arrived and if you can believe it there are two bulls on the ranch that are bigger, I saw footage of them. If you look at the website, you will see what they killed in 2005-5 bulls over 400 inches(a good moisture year). If you are serious about hunting that ranch contact them, they have a video of the bulls and hunts on the ranch and they limit the number of hunters to a very few. I ended up shooting a 355 bull on the 4th day as the rut seemed to have been over. It is very thick country and hard to locate the monster bulls if they are not talking.
