Hunt Backcountry Podcast Archive — Elk

It took 3 weeks of hard hunting for Graydon to fill his elk tag this past September. During that time, he didn't hear a single bugle or find fresh sign to speak of. One chance encounter led to him filling his tag in an unlikely way. This is a wild story of patience and persistence from a new elk hunter.

Caleb Buck joins us to share his experiences hunting elk, and how he plans to apply that knowledge to a different type of elk hunt he has later this year. Caleb has spent time hunting cow elk with a bow, but now has a late-season rifle tag for bull elk. How will Caleb's previous experience help him for this rifle tag?

In this conversation with Jessica Byers we discuss what it is like to be a female in the hunting industry, how to get girls into hunting, mindset for making pressured shots, misconceptions about hunting in Africa, the best hunting gear for women, and a whole lot more. There is something for everyone in this episode!
