54 Elk - Rifle

[SonofMike]

Still can’t believe I drew 54 elk this year. Been a long time coming. Looking forward to a great hunt. Shoot me a note if you have any info on a one in a lifetime tag.

 

[treedagain]

Well Luke, looks like you have a great tag. I know they kill some bruisers out in the corn
Welcome back

 

[SonofMike]

Thanks Jim - its good to be back. Hope all is well.

Nice tag! Super jealous, I spend some time in 54 doing some wildlife research and love that mountain.

 

[willfrye027]

Awesome tag! We’ve seen elk in most parts of the unit. Can’t say I’ve ever seen a true monster, but also have not really looked for them. Happy to chat via PM if you need some ideas for scouting

 

[mtlionchaser]

Congrats on a great tag!!

 

[208LOGAN]

If you want a monster then work hard and get after them! No reason you can't get a 350+ bull if you put in the work. If you want to shot a true monster (375+) then I recommend reaching out to hoby with deadline outfitters.

I have a muzzleloader tag for 54, I am going to be out there the week before season, and 2 weeks of the season, I will let you know when I get back, how it was, and where I saw elk.

Good tag. Hopefully your a resident. Lots of 300 to 330 bulls. Hate to see non resident draw this or several other tags in the state. Never use to feel this way. Just my thoughts. Hunt where you live.Live where you hunt. Ok...blow it up.

 

[twobears]

Well as long as they give out nonresident tags, somebody is going to draw them.

 

[Blindnonresident]

Wash your feet.

I'm sure everyone in WY would love it if everyone in ID felt that way and stayed home in ID

My wife drew the muzzle loader tag in 54 this year! Which hunt did you draw?

Which tag did you draw? Muzzle loader or rifle?
My wife drew the muzzle loader elk tag this year!
I grew up in Oakley so it will be awesome to be back hunting my old stomping grounds. If you have the rifle tag, I would be happy to give you some pointers on where to go.

 

[SonofMike]

I drew the muzzleloader also.

 

[chasin(white)tail]

I drew the rifle tag but have been having issues finding 'the one' again. I thought I put him to bed last night but no dice today. Did you see this bull? Sorry for the low quality

 

[3x2]

Judging by the photo he's probably with Bigfoot.

 

[twobears]

I also had trouble finding " the one" saw a lot of bulls, that one looks good, I saw one like that, but had a broken 4th on his left side.

 

[chasin(white)tail]

Did you end up shooting a bull? Either of you?

 

[208LOGAN]

Did you end up shooting a bull? Either of you?

Did you end up getting one?

Idaho is full of poachers it looks like, some of the worst poaching cases I have ever seen are coming up

 

[IDbucks]

Who thinks this is the first time he has poached? This is probably one of many.

This will be another case that he gets slapped on the hand, gets a few hours of community service will pay a few $$. He will lose his privileges for a year and be back doing it again !! Idaho needs to start making these Poachers do serious time behind bars ... They know they can get away with it without any major consequences !!

Here’s the real poacher of unit 54 Elk

I think the reason Nathan archibalds story was shared here is because his wife had drawn a 54 muzzy tag and he was here asking for information
