Wohoo! I drew a unit 13 muzzle loader tag, first season. Any tips or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Jack - I have guided in 13 many times for elk. Send me a PM with your personal email address.

I just checked, I didn't draw!

Great tag, Jack. I have put in for that unit before.

One of my best buds back in TX pulled the rut muzz tag in unit 34.

Unfortunately I won't be able to make the hunt (leaving to Zim on the day the hunt starts).. What could be a good expectation for a bull in this unit? I am thinking he could find a great bull near the rez boundary.

Scotty,

Unit 34 rocks. I was fortunate enough to bag an absolute slug there a few years back. 384 inches of awesome antlers. Your buddy might want to search for the landowners that are in the unit wide tag system. If the system is unchanged, he can hunt those private ranches that enroll in the system. There is also plenty of public land. Homework is required - there will be a test in October.

Good luck to you and your friend!

Congrats Jack! Should be a great hunt. My first two elk choices were both in 16 and then 34. I drew mobility-impaired antelope (1-101) and have a MI unit wide elk tag for 34. Did you kill your big bull guided or on your own? I look forward to your hunt report and best of luck to you!
