This is Indiana Joe. He was an awesome guy. Only thing he didnt do was book his Arizona archery elk hunt early enough with Travis McClendon AEO! When we talked I agreed with him that all the good guides were gone! I told him I was the most blessed guide you never heard of!😊 I explained I dont guide for the money, I have a job dont need another, I guide because I love to hunt! It puts me out there every year. Told him by the time you arrive I will have already spent every dime Travis pays me and more preparing for your arrival and your hunt! Anyway we had a blast , he brought his wife also. We called in bull after bull waiting for that one big one ! The 5th day of the hunt I told him your gonna kill tonight! He's like really ? Yep I said watch and see friend , I dont joke about things like that. Well of course I was depending on the Good Lord and all the homework I had done all summer. So here are the results of that 5th day! 20 yard shot broadside and he drilled him through both lungs. Bull didnt go 30 yards!

Man, Did I have an exciting year! Just sharing a glimpse of it! Only those who have done this understand all the hardwork involved to capture these bulls . Its definitely a non-profit endeavor. But then I for one dont do it for the money but for the love of it!

Hey everyone this is going to be my first hunt for elk. I missed the draw this year and am determined to at least try my hand at bagging something for my families freezer. I just got back into archery again and am going to be doing my first elk hunt in the 6A South for the nonpermit tag hunt. I'd prefer to have an archery kill but from my understanding i can bring my .308 as well as long as im outside of the city limits. Just wondering if anyone can give out pointers on where to start, where to avoid, maybe even camp? I'll be scouting this coming saturday 10/21/17. I have the map printed out for the area from G&F but would really appreciate any tips, I fully understand this will be a hard hunt but im willing to work hard for the reward. #keephammering
