Guys, I'm looking for some additional information on an area we have selected to archery hunt for elk this fall in Wyoming. We are planning to hunt in the Sierra Madre Mt Range in the Medicine Bow National Forest. We have selected a specific area based on doing some phone scouting and from speaking to a few people from our area that have hunted it in the past. One thing that baffled me was trying to get information on the area from a Wyoming Game and Fish officer. I'm sure he gets hounded and probed alot for information and has come up with some pretty generic answers to my questions. I honestly felt like I probably wasted 30 minutes of his time.
That is where you guys come in, I would sure appreciate it if you could provide me some answers to some pretty basic questions. I already have a place to hunt so I'm not asking where to hunt although I will accept advice on that subject as well but really looking for answers to the following questions regarding the Archery Elk Hunt for the Medicine Bow National Forest:
- What is the hunting pressure like for the Archery Elk Hunt in that area?
- What is the caliber of bulls in this area. Is a nice 6pt 280 to 300pt bull the top end or can you expect better?
- How about the over all Elk population in the area in September?
Thanks, in advance for your replies.
