Summary

In this episode of Hunt Talk Radio Randy and Field Producer, Marcus Hockett, answer the most common question we receive - How can I hunt elk, preferably every year?  This episode is the nuts and bolts of a short-term strategy to hunt elk every season, in some western state.  We incorporate the short-term ideas with a longer-term strategy to increase odds of a high-quality tag every few years.  We imposed a license and tag budget of $1,000, more than any of these states will cost you.  We also discuss the drawing process for most the western elk states and how you can get more details on each state by watching our Elk Talk videos on YouTube.  If you decide to not go elk hunting each year, that's your decision.  We've given you the road map.  Now go elk hunting.

Hey folks, Randy Noobberg here with another episode of Loop Holds on Talk Radio.

0:07.2

Today is a very cold, cold day in Montana, like it is across the rest of the Rockies.

0:14.8

And before we get into the topics of today, which is going to be about how you can go

0:19.9

alkaning every year and why you should go alkaning every year, my guest on this podcast again is,

0:27.8

and he's getting to be quite the regular as Marcus Hockett.

0:32.1

Marcus, as many of you know, is our field producer for the TV show and all of our YouTube content.

0:39.9

Also a serious hunter himself. And Marcus, I think we're in trouble because on one of our previous

0:47.2

podcasts about a month ago, we talked about how the Rockies, if we could just escape one more brutal

0:53.9

winner, it's going to be the best deer hunting in a decade. And what are we dealing with?

1:00.0

Yeah, I think it was negative 15 this morning when I woke up. Yeah.

1:03.7

Ever since we did that podcast, it's like we jinxed the weather. Yeah.

1:08.0

In fact, out on Hunt Talk on the forum, those guys are blaming me. Oh nice. Yeah.

1:13.4

They're like, see Noobberg, you open your mouth. You start talking about this great deer hunting

1:18.3

we're going to have in 2017 and along comes the old man winner. Yeah. It's what it goes. Yeah.

1:24.7

Anyhow, apologies folks. If we have a brutal winner, you can blame it on me or blame it on Marcus.

1:32.8

Yeah, you don't have all of his email and contact information. Either way, so blame him.

1:39.1

But here you have today, there's a couple of reasons why we chose the topic that we're going to

1:45.3

talk about today. One is today is the day that Wyoming opened up its applications for elk.

1:54.0

If you're a non-resident applying for elk and Wyoming, you have until January 31st to get your

1:59.1

application in. And January is pretty much the kickoff of application season. And for those of

2:09.1
