JakeL Report post Posted September 15, 2014 So I've been getting into some good herds of elk this last week. Hopefully it's just a matter of time till I put one down. But I've been following some elk here, and it looks to me like there are several herds that are traveling up to 4 miles each evening to a feeding area, then 4 miles back in the morning to bed down. Seems pretty far... is this normal? How far have you encountered elk moving on their daily commute? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coues krazy Report post Posted September 15, 2014 4 miles is nothing for an elk. Its pretty common for herds to travel that far from bedding areas to feeding areas. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CouesWhitetail Report post Posted September 15, 2014 Sounds pretty normal....as coues krazy said, 4 miles is nothing to an elk.....that's what makes elk hunting so challenging. It sounds like you are getting them patterned though....find a place between their bedding and feeding areas and you might be able to have them come to you.
