[QUOTE="ATH, post: 1327260, member: 1656"] Archery or rifle? I can only imagine how sweet the rifle tag is. I drew an archery hunt there in 2011. We saw a TON of elk, but they were so pressured and smart. I learned do NOT use a call, the only elk noises in the Breaks are made by hunters. WE had several close stalks, but ironically I scored a 6X6 by using hunting pressure to our advantage. We knew where other hunters were going to walk to exit in the evening and correctly predicted where the elk would funnel to escape them. One of the most memorable shots of my life. I have a rifle tag in the Bob Marshall. I took a bull there in 2008, then the wolves moved in, and the next two years I ate my elk tags (and even the muleys more or less disappeared). I'm going this year for the experience before I get too old to backpack into areas nobody else goes in without horses and give me weird looks. But I hope things have improved. My buddy has never been and is really keyed up for the hunt. [/QUOTE]
