2020 Elk hunt, which state, which outfitter?

Shot this one a few years back in the Thorofare region while hunting with Bill Perry outfitter/owner of Hidden Creek.

Hopefully in another 3-5 years we'll have a lottery drawing for WV elk.

Good luck finding an outfitter who isn't already booked for 2020. Application period has come and gone for non rezi's in Wyoming. Colorado will have landowner tags available.

New Mexico. Lots of land owner tags and outfitter draw. no points required. Great Elk too!

I agree with you on the tags and the Elk as well, planning my next hunt in the Land of Enchantment.

Hi Rick I am looking at hunting with Hidden Creek would you recommend them? What dates would you recomend for rifle hunting the 1,2 3 or 4 week of the season? thank you

I am assuming these are all draw tags only?

That looks like a great hunt in the Thorofare! Truly a bucket list!

Let's not hold our breath on any elk tags in the northeast anytime soon, multiple states trying to get a herd that is hunt-able but chances remain very slim. I heard a guy mention he had been trying for 20 years...
