We have seen quite a few bulls during archery season in our area. I'd be burning 5 pts on it, and my partners would be burning 4. It's the only area I know other than Mt. Emily and Starkey Exp. Forest, and I won't be drawing those tags for a long while as a nonresident.
Are you saying the elk migrate somewhere come the 1st of November? Seems like they have everything they need back where we've hunted (water, feed, thermal cover, escape routes, etc.). I'll stick with the plan to find a decent hunt to go on every 5 yrs. Would rather do that than wait 12 years to draw another tag in Oregon.
