Default Suffield Elk in November?

Anyone ever hunt around the base in November and see any elk of decent size. I would like to hunt there in November and just wondering if all the elk stay in the base that time of year after the first few hunts in Sept. and October. Jujst trying to learn a few things and see if it will work out.

Nube I worked around the area at the time of the hunt. Once the early hunts were over the pickins were pretty slim. Big herds teasing on the base side of the fence hardly ever crossing into the "fair game zone". That being said I do know of two fellows that got their bulls in the November season. I think they were lucky to get a bull, not sure if I'd spend my priority on one of the November hunts...

Default Elk

I hunt 150 and 151 every year for deer. The last couple years i didn't see any elk.
Three years back there was a number of elk on the north side of the old railroad west of Bindloss. This is all posted land and she is very strict about no hunters.
Due to the small number of tags drawn for this area if I was a priority one I would look elsewhere.
We did see a couple of real nice Bull Moose right on the Red Deer river last fall though.
