January Malay Elk Rifle Hunt Advice

[GSP1]

I am hunting Malay Jan 2020 without a guide. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Malay?  Malaysia?

I always thought you had to have a guide?  Maybe it used to be that way not sure. Good luck on the hunt, I know they kill some big ones there.

I’d hate to do that hunt unguided.

Take chains for your tires. Last time I hunted it in February and the roads were too bad (wet clay) even with 4WD. Couldn't hunt the areas I wanted.

No atvs.  If the weather is bad, have options.

Poor hunt Malay Gap January-----100 either sex tribal tags the week before the hunt---tough hunt physically---- saw hundreds of cows and spikes----very few branched antlered bulls--bring a ton of gas, chains, winch, spot in touch----might be your only connection out--cost $4500 for tag----might a $1000 tag---then before the hunt the tribe changed the game saying if you kill a bull over 400 they get 10k--just in case a big bull walks over from one of their trophy units---then 100 tribal tag hunt a week after the non-member hunt---You might kill a big bull--- its possible but for the money its overprized--September saw some very good bulls in the Malay--think they came over from the trophy units ---must less competition than the trophy units-----most big bulls left after the rut-----so the tribe up the cost of September archery to $7500---if you are going to hunt this unit hire (Hoss) Julius Hostetler--he is a straight shooter and will scout the unit hard before the hunt--giving you the best chance to succeed---buyer beware---
