Guided New Mexico Elk & Bear Hunts

ARCHERY ELK HUNTS

Late August starts the archery elk season, this is the beginning of the rut. The rut is starting and the elk are beginning to bugle. Late August and early September offers the tree stand hunter a great opportunity to harvest a trophy over a water hole or a wallow. Later in September the elk are becoming more active and the chance of calling in a trophy bull increases for the hunter who like to spot and stalk. These hunts are seven day hunts and additional days maybe available if scheduling allows it.

MUZZLELOADER ELK HUNTS

Early October starts the muzzleloader elk season with the rut in full swing. The herd bulls are bugling heavy and gathering their cows. Calling bulls from their cows can be more difficult, but the bugling makes a great opportunity to locate these trophy bulls. With the increasing range of the modern muzzleloader this offers a great opportunity for a trophy bull. Muzzleloader hunts are 5 day hunts.

RIFLE ELK HUNTS

October has several rifle Elk Hunts. The first rifle hunt still offers some bugling which makes this a very successful hunt. The later October hunts the rut is ending and the bulls are more saluted. With the leaves falling from the trees and a chance of snow this can offer a good opportunity for a trophy bull.
