100% correct.I find elk fairly straightforward to hunt, especially in the rut. After that its harder(at least from my experience)

Finding them can be tough though,they seem to have areas they move back and forth from.It may take a week or more in the areas I hunt before they show up, if at all.

I hunt mostly the 400 zones,I have found that if the wolves are around the Bulls can be silent and will come in without bugling.

Persistence and a positive attitude are needed for elk. Oh and a little luck!!
