I have done it and have some tips.... First one ; get a Havalon knife! http://www.havalon.com/?gclid=CKuh1PLY_qUCFRtqgwodnhPNnQ This will make a world of difference once the elk is down and the work begins.

Actually, anyone can buy an OTC tag and hunt HUGE areas of public land for elk every year. The Limited entry units are where the waiting game applies. I can hunt elk every fall, just not in the primo units. Thanks for the comments guys, it was a great hunt.

I had a great elk hunt this fall and shot a good bull. My sister in law filmed a lot of the trip and I threw together 40 minutes of clips and put them to music. I may make a polished video in the future, but this is kind of fun for now. The video gives you a good idea of what the hunt was like.

If you are looking to bounce ideas and questions off of a bunch of western hunters, here is your best bet; www.monstermuleys.com Good luck!

After 10 years of applying as a resident, I finally drew a limited entry muzzleloader tag for a Southern Utah elk unit. I had a great summer of scouting and prep for the hunt. I shot my bull after four hard days of hunting and passing on many smaller bulls.The full story with pics and long video is on my blog (signature). Here are a couple pics and a vid link to the bull on the ground. Video of bull; http://www.monsterhuntclips.com/video/1204/Andys-2010-blackpowder-bull
