Re: Best State???

There is alot of factors to go into with that one. draw hunts vs otc tags,the number of hunters in an area, the number of elk in an area.

Re: After the shot --- warm weather.

i have similar issues in california hunting in july its over 100 degrees and only 70 at night. once the animal is skinned, deer or pig we quarter or bone it put it in game bags than a garbage bag to keep it dry. then in the cooler with ice. Then keep the ice chest in whatever shade there is.

Re: IS HAVING THE SHARPEST BROADHEAD IMPORTANT?

for me personally I never use a broadhead for deer,elk or bear that has been shot and hit the ground, target,etc. Just my view I want it to be the sharpest and straighteset it can be. I save those that are not really bent for small game, coyotes rabbits etc
