OTC Elk Questions

[bowhuntaz1]

Anyone see any elk around the the Winslow/Holbrook or the Almo Lake area? I have never been to those places and am looking for tips?

winslow holbrook / rincon basin is loaded with quite a few. private property and the little colorado river which is thick with trees makes it difficult. google maps you can see the huge alfalfa fields where they come in and feed. the ranchers get ticked off. I believe the rincon basin is archery only.

I've been wanting to give it a try myself. I know a guy that has 600 or so acres and the elk destroy his alfalfa. long drive and gas is not cheap. might give it a go. at least if you get a tag in January you have a long time to get it done!

hope this helps!

Yep. The G&F told me that the general public runs about a 1% success on the OTC hunts.

 

If your interested, we have run 100% success on OTC hunts since they started offering them.

There is nothing easy about these hunts and we have paid a lot of dues over the years. We still have some oppenings for this year and would love to have some more Coueswhitetailers join us on this hunt.

 

Here is a gallery of several pictures from past OTC hunts.

Thanks!

You know, they aren't the biggest bulls in the state but they are probabally better than the average bull from OTC tag hunts in other states. And an OTC elk tag is still an elk tag right! It's a great opportunity to get out in our own state and we are looking forward to many more this year.
