bowsniper Report post Posted September 20, 2012 I received a text from Hoghntr who has been cow elk hunting for a week now. He is having a rough hunt and asked me to post this for him: "I'm in Antelope Park and the elk are usually here but not this week that I can find. My physical condition is not so good. I do have a crossbow permit, but I am limited to sitting tanks in the evening or bait/salt if ya got it. Thanks for any help and I will keep any secret shared. Just want to fill the freezer. GOD BLESS!" In case you don't know Hoghntr, (Mike), he is a great pig hunter that has helped and shared his knowledge and secret spots with may people on this site. Mike is also a disabled veteran who was in the Gulf war. If you can help mike out in some way, please call him directly at 602-499-4136. Thanks! Mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coues krazy Report post Posted September 21, 2012 Its drying out so I would try and sit a well used tank. I actually think killing a cow can be harder than a bull. Try t-6 area, and around rock top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
6ANut Report post Posted September 21, 2012 Funny I said Rock Top, Horse Park area, and the 700 rd which seems to always have cow elk running across it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KaibabHunter Report post Posted September 21, 2012 I gave him a spot on the southside. Pretty consistent for cows and smaller bulls. Had a small herd come right in on top of me the evening of sep 13 when I went into get my cam. Small 6pt was pretty worked up with about 8 cows and calfs.

cmbbulldog Report post Posted September 21, 2012 If you need help packing one out, let me know. I am heading up tomorrow through the muzzy season. Will be camped off the 132 road somewhere closer to Mormon Lake, so not too far from where you are at. I drive a white F-150 King Ranch. You can try to call me as well, but service is pretty iffy, at least leave me a VM and i will try to help out. Chad - 520.237.3726 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hoghntr Report post Posted September 27, 2012 Thanks to all who offered help... man i had some guys handing over some secret holes that sounded gr8.. my gut said the rut would happen and they would come as they always do . Now i am a praying man and while in prayer Tuesday morning the nHoly Spirit clearly said stay put and go sit here ______ so i immediately went to the tank and popped blind and 2 hours later put a bolt through a 2-3 year old cow which is exactly what i ordered. I called father and son team up there i had met and they came and helped me get it out. I in return for the kindness you all have shown me left my blind for these guys and have them bull sitting and will get blind in few weeks when they are in Phx.. i love it when we are all like family!! now sadly whith road closures and broken body and possibly bait ban i just dont know if this will be my sport for very much longer so feel free to donate meat to this charitable cause whenever. (: I give all the Glory to God on this hunt folks... i killed this elk 3 years to the day of my last big game harvest.. i had been trying like crazy but until i got the hunt addiction under control i was gonna have no luck.. and i am content.. guess what im broken and i have to use crossbow so i might as well enjoy it as any other archery success..(: = content Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
