Whether you are a beginner or have many years experience in the sport of archery elk hunting there is no greater thrill than "bugling in" a fully mature Rocky Mountain Bull Elk to within ten yards. This is the type of archery elk hunting experience we try to provide for all of our clients. For some archery hunters, this may become a reality; for others their hunting opportunity may be different.
Very few of our guided archery hunters go home without a realistic opportunity at an elk. Unfortunately opportunity does not always equal success. We operate our guided archery hunting as combination elk and mule deer hunts. We encourage our bow hunters to do the combo hunts as opportunities can present themselves at anytime and over the years we have had many a bow hunter that wished they had gotten that extra tag.
Our archery hunting takes place during the rut for elk and as you know this is the best time for bugling in those large herd bulls. Bucks during this time may still be in velvet or will have just shed their velvet. They are often times not as wary as they would normally be during their rut later in the season and this makes them more approachable for the archery hunter.
Oregon archery elk hunting takes place during the last week in August through the third week in September and we offer seven day hunts. This can be a very warm time of year. Temperatures in the 80's or higher are not uncommon. Hunter conditioning plays an important role when temperatures get high as well as preparation. Please practice, practice, practice with your archery equipment. The single biggest reason for missed opportunities we have found over the years is lack of preparation.
We do offer unguided hunts in the Ochoco Unit. Meals are the responsibility of the hunter. We will be available to offer our opinions on the most productive way to hunt the property should a hunter ask. We will also try to be available to assist a hunter once an animal is harvested, however on unguided hunts the hunter should be prepared to handle this on their own.
