Utah elk?

Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anyone new a good place to apply for an archery bull hunt in Utah for next year? I can't get drawn here in AZ so I may as well try somewhere else I guess. It has been 11 years since I was drawn and that was a cow tag, so I have never been able to get a bull. I get drawn for deer about every third year, which is fine since I can take a bow out still. But, I would appreciate any recommendations.

Good luck drawing a UT limited entry tag. Some areas are still OTC, as are some in CO. You could apply in NM as there is no pref system, but the odds are low.

Thanks for answering. Maybe I'll try an over the OTC tag, I would just like to go and have a chance instead of taking other people out for once and just watching, which is fun for a while.

with 11 bonus points you can draw 5bn or 7e or 7w archery bull tag REAL easy! It's about 15% draw out there and with 11 bp you'll have a real good chance. If you put in for 1/27/3's/9/10/8 then you should expect atleast 13 years between drawing a tag, play with the stats smart and you can greatly increasae your odds of getting drawn

There is a few hogs in 23 that I have been trying to get a tag for and then I apply for 5's, and 6's. I might have to give that up though to find a tag. Thanks for the tip.

The cool thing about UT is that the draw is only $5.00 and you don't have to purchase a license... It will take time but you will get a tag...

I would look into NM!!! There are some big bulls there as well. I wouldn't put in for elk in UT...you will be walking with a walker before you get drawn!!! :P I would apply for mule deer (carp) in UT. There are some really good areas in NM as well as NV. You can get a good archery tag in CO with a few pref points. Send me a PM and I will give you a few units to apply in.
