Awesome job! I hunt Apache county in the Navajo Nation near my home. They are some massive creatures, however the increase in the feral horse population is driving the elk an mule deer numbers down. Not many watering holes here on the reservation.
Yeah people just don't seem to understand the amount of damage feral horse do. They need to be managed like any other animal.
Great episode and so true thank you for Sharing your stories.
Thanks for watching.
I've called in bulls from 3/4 miles away. While calling bulls just below me... lone bulls from as far as I could see came running down, across the basin and right up to within 20 yards away... they had me pegged from 3/4 miles away!
I drew 2a & 2B elk Oct.8th-17th. I think I know where you're at in this video. I looked at the map and it is exactly where I am headed when I scout it before bow season.
Nice videos.when you hunt it shows people how to hunt.thanks for sharing your videos
Thanks for watching.
Love it. I will be in 3B this Nov. is there a video or pod episode that gives advice on late season calls?
I'm from Apache County, Arizona. It's amazing for you to do this here in Arizona. I love watching your shows, especially the ones in my home state. You plan on coming back to Arizona again? What about one on Arizona Mule Deer?
We were there in September for doves and will be back for Coues deer in January. Mule deer is probably on the list in the next two years. Thanks for watching.
thanks just wondering seems like they serve you well
glad I could help
Liking the "On your own approach" Holy cow ....just got a quote from a guide here in Northern California for $20,000 for an Elk Hunt with a 'guaranteed tag" ...can it be that expensive ?! I'd rather take my own chances and just enjoy the experience whether It's a successful hunt or not if I was ever fortunate to draw a tag. Sheesh FYI ...potential new hunter with no clue here
Carlos - Don't get discouraged. Lots of opportunity it hunt and lots of places to gather information, without paying a large sum. Our forum is targeted to the self-guided hunter on public lands. Lots of information there - www.hunttalk.com. Good luck.
+Randy Newberg, Hunter thanks for the resource... Think I need to connect with folks who have the same approach as you all in my neck of the woods.
I'm guessing bowhunting for a beginner without a guide is a not so good idea?! Seeing as you have to get so close ?
Surely a more challenging path, but more rewarding, for sure.
$20,000 is a lot, you can start hunting elk for $1000-2,000. elk tag range between $500-700 for out of state.
surprised that you glass with a spotting scope
Hi Randy, just wanna ask you a general question. How successful were you on the draw and what's the % of the odd?
did you use a 300 win mag in this video
I moved to Arizona from Oregon in 1995 and have been here ever since, Arizona has elk but it's one of the worst places to live if you enjoy elk hunting because it's so hard to get a tag. There's no OTC tags here. Better chance of having a white Christmas than you do a trophy bull elk
Hmm. I have drawn late rifle tags about every 4-7 years and had great hunts. Hope your luck changes.
@@Fresh_Tracks me too lol happy hunting my friend
would you recommend 300 win mag or 308? going to be hunting deer and elk in Montana thanks
+Cracken 23 - Whichever you shoot with the greatest accuracy.
what ammo do you use for elk? thanks
+Cracken 23 - For my .300 Win, I use 180 grain Nosler Accubonds or Nosler E-Tips. For my .308 Win, I use 165 Nosler Partitions. Good luck this year.
Good video 1 ? You said you'd rather shoot a cow instead of a young bull is that because the females outnumber the males and you want the herds to increase. Also, I got a elk tag (antlerless elk) so would you be against taking a young bull calf as opposed to a cow and if so why? I prefer the more tender, less gamey (gamie?) tasting meat as I prefer other wild game to elk. (I made a mistake on my app and didn't realize I selected antlerless. because I know where monsters are close to where I live on a reservation) So I'll probably keep the back straps and give the rest to friends and family. I'd greatly appreciate your feedback well because compared to other vids on RUclips of other hunters I can tell you know what your doing very well. Thx keep up the great vids I really liked your how to field dress a deer in like 5 or 10 minutes something like that.
I am all for a hunter taking whatever works for them. I see a young bull as an animal that has finally made it through the most dangerous 2.5 years of his life. If he makes it through that hunting season, he has very good odds of growing to be a mature breeding bull. In most units, female elk are at or above objective, so I would rather take an old cow that has run most of her course than to take a young bull with a lot of life ahead of him. As for meat quality, I've never had a bad elk, so I don't really make must distinction based on age or sex of the animal taken. Thanks for watching.
@@Fresh_Tracks great answer, ethical .
if your in Apache county isnt Navajo county to the west?
Yeah, did I say something different?
Lol you said Coconino is to the west but Navajo is between yall. I live in Navajo and I'm just being a button haha. I like what you do with your show and really enjoy watching western style hunters! Keep up the good work! Ps how do I get to go on a montana mule deer adventure with yall?
whiskybentcowboy Got it. As for hunting with us, as you might imagine, we get hundreds of requests. The good news is that MT is pretty easy. Draw odds are 100% in most years and most the state is open for rifle hunting in November. Lots of public land and plenty of deer, just not the quality of deer in the better AZ units.
What pack are you using?
I use Mystery Ranch Metcalf packs.
I like in coconino
7mm
Just goes to show you elk hunting is not easy.
It only takes a bit of bad luck to make things even tougher. I made a couple mistakes on this hunt that have helped me as I learn from those mistakes.
randy who or how did you get to using howa rifles
In addition to Howa rifles, I've tried many other brands; Kimber, Remington, Savage, Winchester, Browning. I settled on Howa as a result of their rifles being the best value in accurate hunting rifles, and their desire to be part of our public land self-guided hunting message.
Randy what unit was this? 27?
Unit 2.
Thought that looked familiar. I live in 3b. So you were in 2a? That looks like 2a terrain.
Yup.
Hey Randy can u help me get my hunters safety
I would go online and find out how you can get it in your state. A lot of states now allow the online courses.
Better w/o music.
20k tag, are you guys kidding?
