[QUOTE="dogz, post: 1934997, member: 5429"] Your hardest task will be deciding if you should shoot a legal but non-trophy elk early in the hunt when you may not see another! (Talk with your guide about REAL probabilities where you are hunting and decide that up front.) Good point, know in advance what you'll be happy with and stick to it. Don't pass a elk on the first day that you'shoot on the last day! Also, keep in mind, that you dictate what distance and shot you'll take and not the guide. Your 06 is a fantastic elk round, if you're used to it take it and use it and dump the idea of a new rifle at this point in the game. [/QUOTE]
