    They are talking about Virginia having a limited lotto Elk hunt in the future. They have a growing herd in the southwest.

    I can't wait to start complaining on here, would love to have another November like 2018 here. Late season gear in November never gets old.

    2018 was my best year ever. Wouldn’t mind even a near repeat of that

    So, what did you kill in 2018? If you post something like that it should be accompanied by pics. :bow:

    I remember that snowstorm. We had just moved into the new place a month or so before and I was dragging a deer when the snow hit.

    I was skinning and quartering that deer outdoors in a blizzard

    That’s about what I said when he stepped out. I think I was pretty surprised to put an arrow in him bc of how much I was shaking. He ran 40 yds nov 8. Full pass through and bright red in the snow was easy. Biggest I have ever killed and ever will ha.

    The other one was thanksgiving morning. Old bruiser who was beating up a couple 1.5 year olds. He ran directly underneath me before I saw him ram out to 80 yds. I snort wheezed him back. First time that worked for me.

    That first one is a heck of a buck!

    I put in for Arkansas elk every year. It is pure lottery and only 30 or so permits per year. 14 years on applying without drawing. Good thing it is only $5 to apply. :violin:
