    Who's done it? W.TX Elk

    I've been interested in a West Texas Elk for a long time and was wondering if anyone has done it and what did you think about the experience? Pics, Videos are always welcome!

    I remember looking into this when I was in my early 20s. That was 40 years ago.

      Seen them out there while hunting other species. West Texas is phenomenal hunting! Do it!

        All I can say is every I see the cost of a guided hunt for W. TX elk I get a little discouraged!

        But still on the bucket list!

          This would be neat to do one day. Can't say I know much about it though...figure it's cheaper than going out of state. I'm interested in learning more.

            My dad shot a cow elk on private land two years ago out around Alpine/Sanderson area. Not sure if I still have a picture but he sent me some of the bulls they saw and they were well over 300".

              I have a buddy that does some guiding on these west Texas elk hunts. The success rate is much better than going out of state, cost is up there. I wouldn’t call it unreasonable, However it’s probably more than I am willing to pay for an elk hunt. If you want more info let me know, and I can get you a phone number to visit with the right people

                $10,000 but the smallest bull that they have taken is 362”. They took a 438” last year.

                    Yep. It ain't cheap, but I'd love to do it.

                        Archery or rifle?

                              this was archery. He was in the 325" range on a rough score....very good mass though.
