hunterlee Report post Posted January 14, 2011 This last elk season, a group of us were drawn for unit 22North rifle hunt in late november and there seemed to be a differing opinion on when we needed to be out to our hunting spot, set up, ready to glass the area in hopes to see some signs of bulls. I like to sit high on a hill and glass valleys and other hillsides and then set up a plan to move in closer for the shot. So I wanted to get a poll and a few expert opinions on how early every gets out to they're hunting spot? TC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

youngbuck Report post Posted January 15, 2011 Before shooting light UNLESS it requires me to go stompin through a bunch of country that holds critters. Some spots I start glassin from the road, then continue on to the next spot, after I glass what I'll have to walk through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azpredator@work Report post Posted January 18, 2011 I agree with youngbuck. We head in at shooting light to a few of my areas in 22n because we have to travel right through a night time feeding area and there is always a chance one might be a little late getting to his core area for the day. If you are in country that elk don't use I set up at least 30 minutes before light so I'm ready. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
