I hear AZ runs their draw like they run their elections. I will take the over.

Is it safe to assume that if my cc was not hit yet, then I missed out on this years elk tags? Congrats to the lucky ones who drew a tag this year.

No cuddling necessary.

Unfortunately, my hunt experience in Flagstaff was not as productive as jo2012. I saw elk every day with an opportunity at a cow on 9/20, but my shot sailed high at 35 yards, she looked 50 yds to me. Ranging her was not possible since the wind shifted and she was staring right at me as I drew. On 9/22, i had several close encounters with elk, and even a 6x6 bull at 35 yards standing broadside. He had no idea I was there. If only I had a bull tag. I had a blast for 6 days burning shoe rubber up and down the hills. There were very few elk bugling in the areas I was hunting. But when they did, it made locating them much easier. Maybe I can draw another tag in AZ next year. Thanks to all the posters who gave me intel.

Nice job. Congratulations!

If your bugles were closer, I might have eased over to check it out. 😉

I heard a couple North west of walnut canyon, but they may have been Hunter's. It was a long way from my location.

Sneaker, Very nice bull! Congratulations!

Don't shoot'em all and leave me a cow in the Flagstaff area.

This is concerning. I will keep my head on a swivel.

I will be headed to Flagstaff next week for a cow archery hunt.

15 yard shots are always in my plans, but just not reality...so far.

Great video! thanks for uploading.

Elk cows were curious about a specific spot they were sniffing on the ground. Any ideas what was on that spot?

Elsa could not call elk, so I passed.
