It is the early rifle (Sept.) hunt that is restricted to the entire Flat Tops Wilderness area so includes parts of 12, 24, 25, 26, 231, etc.

Have you ever hunted the area?

After 27 years of applying and building preference points, I got lucky today and drew a Shiras bull moose tag near Jackson, Wyoming just east of the Tetons. October can't get here quick enough...

Best of luck to the rest of y'all in the upcoming draws!!!

Assuming thats 18?

If you need an outfitter, I have a friend right there, old school hunter/outfitter type. PM me with your contact info and I can give you his info. He still lives where he grew up in the Gros Ventre.

We are coordinating my daughters Elk with him now and he is asking me to see if she is interested in using a crossbow for elk in September next year. I am an bow and rifle hunter and the crossbow thing just never crossed my mind, always considered them a slow rifle. Anybody still reading this far have any thoughts on crossbow elk hunting? she is 17 not sure how she will respond so already in love with her Alamo Precision Build.

Well, I am a guide for those units and I am a Meeker resident so yeah. I know it. My email is in my profile if you want some help.

Yessir, WY unit 18, Fish Creek. I'm booked with a local outfitter that has great success on MONSTER Shiras bulls and outstanding bull elk. I'll be heading up there around the first part of October at the start of the moose rut. It should be an adventure with all the wolves and grizz in that country. The moose are real smart in that country with all the wolves and grizz, but they do grow some bigguns out there.

Sorry, but I've got no comments on crossbow hunting. Of all the years I've chased elk, they're tough critters and can absorb a lot of lead. Wishing you and your daughter the best of luck and we're looking forward to you posting some pics!

Thats awesome, have fun and post us all some pics of your trophy.
