Elk Hunt

Our 1,300 acres of private land is located close to Aguilar in Southern Colorado which is an excellent Hunting spot for Elk Bull and Cow.

You find several big meadows, Pinon Trees, Ponderosa and Cedar. We have several year round water holes and a nice spring fed creek running through. Simply, a paradise for elk.

The number of hunters is very limited to ensure that our hunters have a good chance to get quality animals and nice trophies. Every year our hunters get their share of 4 x 4, 5 x 5 and 6 x 6 Elk Bulls and a body weight of up to 900 lbs.

For 2008 we have openings for most of the seasons.

Because the Elk Hunt is limited to a total of 20 hunters, max 4 hunters per season, we suggest early reservations.

The really low price makes it one of our most popular hunts. Actually, we are able to give it to you for about half the price other outfitters around here charge.

Hey - with the savings you can book your 2009 hunt too !

We guide the morning and evening hunts, because this is the time, when the Elk move in their feeding grounds or to the water holes.

In Rifle Season the average shot will be between 150 and 300 yards.

The Hunting methods will depend on the season, the weather and the condition of the hunter.

Since all Elk on our property are really wild animals, and not penned up, we have no influence on their behaviour.

Before every hunting day we will coordinate the hunting methods and hunting spots with you.

We can not guarantee a 100% kill, but you get an excellent chance to improve your hunting skills.

We hunt hard and we have a success rate of approx 80% .

Remember, you hunt on private land and you are not surrounded by an unlimited amount of hunters.

We guide you, but you make the call whether the trophy is right for you.

You should practice shooting in a sitting, kneeling and standing position.

Colorado Law requires a Center Fire Rifle with at least a .24 cal. (6mm) or larger Rifle. We personally prefer a 300 WinMag.

There are other different minimum restrictions so I would suggest that you check with the Colorado Division of Wildlife at www.wildlife.state.co.us

Colorado has a bit of a confusing Licensing System, the bottom line is, you are hunting in Area 85.

Don't miss the application deadline on April 1st, 2008.

If you are not successful in the drawing, you can try to get an unlimited license or a leftover license. Sometimes we have landowner permits too.

If you don't get a license in the drawing, and we are not able to provide you with a landowner permit (without additional costs for the landowner permit), contact us within 14 days after the drawing, and your down payment will be refunded in full.

Sometimes there is a possibility to get a leftover or an over the counter license. If you are interest, let us know and we will inform you about availability.
