Description

This is a trophy elk hunt on 50,000+ acres of private land in unit 123. This is a hard tag to draw, max points, but you won't be disappointed when successful. Generally this area takes 13 points to draw for non-resident rifle hunters. This ranch is heavily managed for trophy quality and with only having a bull season every 3rd year pressure is low and quality is high. The rifle season opens September 10th so this is a rifle rut hunt! Only 3 bulls taken in the area. This is a 1:1 10 day with options to add more days.
