Some Tips for Elk Hunting


The chief technology officer of the San Francisco technology company, Jawbone, Michael Luna has served as primary or supporting inventor on over 80 patents that have been issued. When he is not busy with Jawbone, Michael Luna enjoys fishing and hunting. 

The elk is a large species that is native to Asia and to North America. To hunt elk successfully, hunters have to take a few things into consideration before heading out on excursions. 

First and foremost, experienced elk hunters recommend that newcomers take the time to familiarize themselves with their quarry. This is valuable advice, whatever the quarry. But it is especially important when hunting elks as they exhibit distinct behavior. A hunter who is ignorant about their diets, habitats, and habits is bound to have a hard time hunting them. 

New elk hunters must also be relatively fit and should show up to the hunt well-prepared and equipped to walk long distances. Individuals who cannot hike at a strenuous pace for several hours are not likely to see an elk all day. Other things to keep in mind while planning a first elk-hunting trip include choosing the right rifle or bow, targeting areas that are far from roads, and choosing the appropriate methods for butchering/hauling potential kills.
