Guys and Gals,
I am reading all of these posts about elk and mule deer... but I am way out east and have never hunted in the west.
For starters, what would be a good state and location for an out of stater to look at to go on a DIY elk or mule deer hunt?
Could they be one and the same?
This would be a long term plan, more likely for 2011 and possibly not until 2012?
I am not looking for specific locations, I will do my research, I am looking for general guidelines as to states, time to go, chances of getting drawn, that type of thing.
Thanks!
