Elk Hunting Q & A: Expert Advice from Bugle Magazine (Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation)
The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation’s Bugle magazine has fielded scores of difficult questions from its ­subscriber base, mostly the Foundation membership, for ­several years in its “Q&A” department, and in response it has provided expert advice. This book is the collected wisdom of that department, compiled in an easy-access format. It ­covers the basics: What’s the most important thing for a first-time elk hunter to know? Technical issues: What’s the best way to pack and preserve the meat? And tactical matters: How do you catch a bull with his guard down? Whether you hunt with a bow, rifle or muzzle loader, you'll find  valuable information here that you can quickly apply and adapt to your kind of hunting. And no matter where you do your elk hunting—from high desert to dense forest—there is advice here worth reading. The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, headquartered in Missoula, Montana, has been dedicated to ensuring a future for elk, other wildlife, and their habitat across North America since its inception in 1984. It has completed more than 4,700 conservation projects, ­conserving and enhancing more than 4.5 million acres of wildlife habitat (as of January 2006).
