[QUOTE="soberups, post: 423780, member: 14668"] While our ancestors certainly did not have the advantage of scoped, high-powered rifles...they [U]did[/U] have the advantage of a hunting season that lasted 365 days a year instead of 5. They also did not have to contend with bag limits; a cow or calf elk was just as good for feeding the tribe as a bull, and much easier to kill and butcher. They could also kill any deer, grouse, squirrel or other small game they came across, whereas my tag was good only for one bull elk and nothing else. And big bull elk dont get that way by being stupid and easy to hunt. The typical success rate for elk hunters in this particular unit is something like 3%. The vast majority go home empty handed.
