How Long For TN Elk

[paboom]

What's your best guess on how many more years until you're able to hunt elk in TN? I haven't seen a time frame.

Just curious...

 

[Baxter83]

Not sure myself, but I'd like to know. I can't wait!!

there will be 5 tags next year,1 will be auctioned off,1 will be out of state resident picked & 3 for Tn residents,mike243

Yep next year a Tennessee Elk will be killed and tagged. YEE HA

I am just wondering.....If a man gets drawn, do you find your own spot to hunt or does the state tell you where to hunt? I know the locations where they release them but just where do you go?

sweet! even though it's only 5 tags, I didn't think they'd start this soon. Thanks for the info.

Slight correction...

No more than 25% of the tags may go to non-residenta. In this case, since there are only four available, only one tag may go to a non-resident. It's quite possible all four drawn tags will go to residents.

Do you expect us to take your word for it, just because you are the TWRA Big Game Coordinator? Pffft.

Just kidding. :grin:

Good job BGG. You keep telling everyone that because all the money I'm sliding you and Quota Lady under the table doesn't need to be known.

 

[DBLAARCHERY]

Can't wait myself...TWRA will give you asigned areas with your tag if you are drawn...It will keep all 5 tags out of the same area...I can't wait ")...It will beat going to Idaho and not killing...

 

[warrenhunter]

Has the draw application date been officially picked out yet or are the details still being worked out.

 

[trealtree]

It will probably be on the same form as the quota hunts? more people would pay the 10 bucks to enter in the drawing that way.

 

[Diehard Hunter]

I plan on seeing several of them tomorrow. i watched a nice 5x5 a couple of weeks ago. I was within 5 yards of him at one time. Now if I can only draw one of those tags.

Dont worry when I draw a tag I will let you be my guide.

 

[corymhoward]

it would be nice to be one of the first people in tennessee to take one with a bow!!! i think i would pack a gun for that one tho....................

 

[DBLAARCHERY]

I believe Bow is in order for this hunt...If I get drawn it will be me and my mathews... )---->

 

[POSSUM HUNTER]

[Diehard Hunter]

[POSSUM HUNTER]
