Nick Posted July 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 I got a cow tag for this hunt. But like SQ2 said....there are only a couple hundred tags each year with several thousand people applying. I got a few uncles that have applied for YEARS and have never got one. So it is a once in a lifetime thing. I just contacted a guide service this afternoon that I think I will go with. They are a little pricey but have a 100% success rate the last couple seasons. But, for an opportunity like this, I will chunk out the change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig mack Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 Congrats Nick!!! You are very lucky to draw a tag. What area are you gonna hunt? I know that there are atleast 2 big ranches in the Pigeon River Forest that have guides. My Parents live on Burt lake and my Dad drives around there every once in a while to go elk viewing and has seen alot the past few years. Are you gonna use a bow or gun?

OJR Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 Nick, if it is for a cow, that is great because they are GREAT eating! All the elk I have gotten, the cows eat a whole lot better than the bulls!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted July 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 Craig, I'm in the "A" unit which is the southern most part of the elk hunt area. I think Montmorency County. The guide I booked with said it is a great area for hunting cows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
