The Elk Thread

Along with those boots be sure to get a polypropylene sock liner to go under the socks. It will reduce the chances of blisters tremendously which can possibly ruin a hunt

I've got llbean hunting boots and so far I have had no problems with blisters in them other than the one time (which was my scouting day) where I wore ankle socks.

I'm starting to try and figure out where the heck to hunt next year. My NZ trip got postponed until next May so I'll be spending 8-10 days chasing elk. I've got 3 pts in Colorado, Arizona, Nevada and Utah and 4 in Wyoming. Been looking around on gohunt. Seems in Colorado I can't draw any more units that I can't with 3 points until it jumps to 6 points except for one but it may be worth waiting for.

I've got similar situation. I've got 5 in Utah, 4 Wyoming and 3 in Colorado plus the same for mulies. If I do 2 hunts then either colorado for mulie or elk, but can't decide. I'm thinking that I don't want to build elk points or mulie points in colorado.

Ya I'm just trying to figure out what unit. I just want one that has less pressure than otc and quite a few elk. Trophy quality isn't that important

How are vortex optics? Looked at their 1000 rangefinder and some binos. Haven't had my hands on them. My Nikon binos took a fall last year and both lenses won't focus clear together. They are both clear but not at the same time, one will be fuzzy. I emailed Nikon to see what it will cost to repair.

The vortex are good. Not quite sworo level but I went with vortex because of the lifetime warranty

I saw that vortex is making a rangefinding binoculars, I am intrested to check them out, my new swarvoski are already broke after only a year, I am sending them in but they have to go back to Europe for repairs.

Yea I just can't afford swaro's or Leica's. I've never used one. It I have heard vortex makes nice scopes so I was wondering about their other optics

Habitat of unit 77? Maybe not many have experience in the unit.
