BRYCE CANYON Report post Posted September 6, 2004 There are some bulls running behind my house in 7M and they are not doing much at all. In fact, they are off by themselves still even though there is a good sized herd of cows in the same area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mike ornoski Report post Posted September 7, 2004 I was hunting in 22 and heard 25 to 30 of those awsome melodies. Did call in 1 small bull mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
111 Report post Posted September 7, 2004 (edited) The bulls have started to bugle north of Flagstaff. I think the farther south the later the rut will start. Saw a large five point with five cows and screaming his head off. He better enjoy them cows while he can because that heard bull will be taking him over soon. Good luck hunting.

bcoover Report post Posted September 7, 2004 When I was up noth for the opening day of deer season I heard a few but not many. They should be going off all over the state in about two more weeks or maybe one more big storm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHT_MTNMAN Report post Posted September 8, 2004 I was out Labor Day Morning in white mountains, and got in to 4 bulls, one was screaming, the other three hanging out whistling, they kept it up until almost 8 am. I never got to see the screaming bull but of the other three one was a small 5x5 the other two low 300 bulls. Early that morning driving out I saw 2 bulls cross the road, both decent bulls, one maybe high 370, hard to tell as they ran across the road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TREESTANDMAN Report post Posted September 8, 2004 A high 370 bull in my opinion is better than a decent bull!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHT_MTNMAN Report post Posted September 8, 2004 370 is a good bull, just not what I would shoot in my home area of 3C, i know better. (unless it is a late hunt) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ALYUAZ Report post Posted September 9, 2004 How good is elk hunting in 3A/3C in late November?I finally got a rifle bull tag for this unit after 10 years of applying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TREESTANDMAN Report post Posted September 9, 2004 Nice tag!!! The big bulls are still there, just not quite as easy to locate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHT_MTNMAN Report post Posted September 9, 2004 It is a great tag, my wife will be trying her hand at elk hunting in Nov. for first time. The south part of the unit (3C) is pine covered canyons, (the ones that didn't burn) and the northern part is mostly cedar, juniper, etc... Good luck on your hunt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mon Report post Posted September 10, 2004 I have a tag for the Oct 1 elk hunt in unit #27 I haven' t hunted this area in a long time (14)years can any one point me to an area wher I would have a good chance for a good bull. I know that this area has a good pouplation of elk but I have never gotten drawn for this early hunt. any advice would be helpful Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DesertBull Report post Posted September 10, 2004 Mon, you have the tag of several lifetimes, I would suggest you do a little scouting and not let that tag be wasted. Try North of Rose Peak and along the west side of the Blue River in the wilderness area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
