I truly love to hunt deer, anywhere, any state. But if you are caught up with the deer hunting, then go elk hunting out west when the aspens are turning and hunt in the spruce and aspen from say 9000 feet up. Even if you do not get an elk, the scenery and the bugling and the weather will make for a great trip.

i would start right now. I would take $100 and join Huntin Fool and spend as much time talking and trying to negotiate pricing. Yes, outfitters do discount prices early just to get revenue going to pay private landowners early. Some of the best ranches are paid on January 1 for the following fall.
You could really find yourself a deal if you put in the time and afew hours and some phone calls. Get on some great western big-game web sites (free) and ask some questions, (free advice).
I love doing the work to get on some decent antlers. It's just a better hunt in my opinion.
