: Unit 10 is a great elk unit. There are usually a few 400-point bulls here in years of good precipitation and range conditions. All you have to do is draw a permit, work hard, and be lucky. Don’t shoot the first bull you see, unless it is a real monster. Scouting is important. Respect other hunter’s opportunities. Scouting for the early bull hunt during the archery hunt should be as unobtrusive as possible. Someone else’s hunt of a lifetime hangs in the balance. Scouting and hunting from hilltop observation points with powerful optics is highly recommended. Unit 10 elk still respond to “calling” and this method of hunting can be as exciting as it gets. Pick out several different elk calls – cow calls and bugles – and practice until you sound like an elk. Instructional videos or cassettes can be helpful, but hearing real elk will also help. Vary your use of different calls and calling sounds to keep the elk on edge. Remember, elk don’t usually sound as good as champion elk callers. When a bull is worked up, almost any call will get his attention. Waterhole hunting from blinds or good hiding places can be a good method of hunting elk in the warmer times of the year. Please respect other hunter’s hunting blinds and just don’t plan on using one you didn’t put up. “Blind jumping”, similar to “claim jumping” with miners has become a problem in recent years. Hunting antlerless elk can be easy or challenging depending on your luck and existing conditions during your hunt. Again, glassing from good vantage points and watching water can be good ways of locating elk. When elk are located at a distance, aggressive hunting tactics are likely in order. A herd of elk can feed along at a relatively fast rate and can easily out-distance a stalking bow hunter. Rifle hunters have more of an advantage, but one still needs to get close enough for a good shot before the elk feed into cover. Early-season hunting is usually done during warm weather. Make sure proper care is taken with meat. Youth-Only general antlerless hunts area a great opportunity to get youngsters interested in hunting. Parents and adult helpers, please note: due to lack of experience youth hunters are more apt to make mistakes. Please make sure your youth hunter is sure of their target, knows the appropriate place to take a clear shot at the vitals, waits the appropriate amount of time to determine if the animal is wounded, and takes follow-up shots, if needed. If the hunter makes a mistake, please report it to the Department. The goal of these hunts is to teach good hunter ethics and accountability. Areas: The Kaibab National Forest portion of Unit 10 is a good location to hunt elk. The central part of Unit 10 from Mount Floyd north to Long Point, the Bishop Lake Plateau, the Aubrey Cliffs, Robber’s Roost, and Cataract Canyon all hold huntable populations. The Coconino Plateau holds a good population of elk right out in the open ‘antelope’ country far from the trees. Find an area to your liking and put in your time.

I'm gonna head up just to practice with my bugle and hoochie mama. 😏😏😄😜

No deer,elk or antelope. Just lots of party camps. The 68d is what cruising Central used to be.😫

Yep. I thought unread was unread. I cant get rid of it. Cant figure it out. Probably cause im too oltttttt.

So does that mean you have to sign in and out to get rid of the read topics that keep coming back?

Thank You. You will now carry the Title as a "Negative Member", your status has been changed.😝

I dont know the count. Did you lose your premier status. It shows you won 61 times. Dont know what you.won.😝

When I'm shooting know one is shooting beside me.😄

The buddy is what i did.

This was my throw in the rhino gun for several years. Savage model 11.270 wsm. Did my own trigger work, new hogue stock, bolt on break and some Berger load development. I'm pretty happy with the results. Five shot groups at 100 yards. Cold clean barrel.

Here is the load info if any.270 wsm guys are interested. Had a little time this weekend to load up some more. I will see how they do next time at 300-500.

I use an Oehler.

Might cause the tread to tear or chunk easier. Not sure, but i would fix it.

You really turned this into "The Jerry Springer Show" now, but I think it was already close.😄

I agree these sites dave has publicised suck, but Lance is correct. Stop publicising . I didn't know this $hit was out there until now. Stop spreading the word.

I thought you bought the golden ticket.

I have never had a hemorrhoid before, if I get one I will name it davehc130😏

That's odd! Most people seem to drive their quad around the tank to look for sign/track.

Probably not the best, but i use the lee and shoot some nice groups. It is pretty fast. Not in 300 rum though.

Don't know about Payson, but pools are a money pit.

Free range.

Didn't say hero or any political preference. AMERICAN!!!

An American that fought for Freedom. R.I.P.

He his an American that fought for Freedom.

He sure had guts!
