[QUOTE="azsugarbear, post: 506110, member: 4809"] BenY, In addition to all the good advice on getting physically in shape, you need to start doing some research on the terrain where you want to hunt. In my home state of AZ, we have some great, quality elk hunts. Problem is: it sometimes takes years to get drawn. Some of the units can be very tough, rugged hunts, but most are on open, rolling terrain. Nearly all units for elk are at 5,000 to 8,000 feet altitude. Units 2 through 10 tend to be rather flat or gently rolling hills with a few steep canyons. Generally easy to hunt once you get acclimated to the elevation. I'm sure other states have similar areas.
