039 | Everything You Need to Know About Elk Hunting with Corey Jacobsen

Many hunters are proud do-it-yourself guys that scout and hunt public lands on mostly general season tags — working hard for every opportunity and even harder for every punched tag.  We know those guys, because we are those guys.  But there might be a day when even the proudest DIY guy wants to hunt a certain species, or a certain location, and they discover that a guided hunt becomes a necessity.

In this show we interview Chris Maxwell and discuss some of the essential first steps that hunters should know when thinking about choosing to go on a guided hunt.  Whether you're in the process of booking now, or simply think that you might go on a guided hunt one day in the future, the information covered in this show will no doubt help you make an informed decision about "going guided."  And, even if you are one of those guys that insists on never using a guide (and we do discuss why you shouldn't be so stubborn about that), you'll still find this episode valuable if you ever intend on traveling out of state, or out of the country, for a destination hunt.

054 | Going Guided: Essential Information To Get You Started

When it comes to elk hunting, September gets all of the attention.  But just because the most vocal and intense action tends to occur during that period, doesn't mean that hunting later in the season — even after the rut — can't be incredibly productive.  Hunting in the late-season does, however, mean that you need to change your tactics.  In this episode we are joined by freelance hunting author and successful late-season elk hunter, Mark Kayser.

Mark helps us understand an elk's mindset in the post-rut period.  We also discuss where and how to locate elk this time of year, what calling strategies can be used with success, and much more.
