DesertBull Report post Posted December 3, 2017 Ive been seeing bulls start feeding at 8-9 am. I think they are up feeding with the full moon at sunset and then bedding way before daylight. Then up feeding again late in the morning. Stay out all day and glass the shady pockets on the mountain. I saw 4 bulls feeding at 10 am this morning. Then saw another bull come out of the thick stuff at 4:00 pm. Feed for 30 minutes then bed in the open. He was waithing for the sun to set to feed under the moon.

206 Report post Posted December 3, 2017 As amazing as 10 can be for archery...10 can be very tough for rifle. Glassing is the best way to find the bulls. Last time my dad hunted the rifle glassing bulls at 3-4 miles was not uncommon. Then closing the distance to less than 1 mike and better identifying what you have is the normal. Full moon does not mean the will not be out feeding during the day just means the May bed and get up and feed in less typical areas. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoss50 Report post Posted December 6, 2017 My buddies in 7e had the same problem. They saw 1 cow elk in 4 days. No bulls. They saw 1 swinging in a camp and everyone else had seen nothing also. Sounds like a super tough year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
