Southern Idaho Premium Private Land Rifle Elk

This area of Idaho has a great elk population and excellent hunting, and the bulls in this area range from 260"-350"+. This is a premium rifle bull elk hunt on forest and BLM ground, as well the 5,000 private acres that this hunt comes with. There are two seasons starting the first of October and the middle of October. The season usually ends on around the 24th of October. To get the tag you must either draw the tag, or the outfitter does have a limited number of outfitter tags available each year. Planning this hunt in advance is the key to locking it down if you want to bypass the draw.

This can be a physically demanding hunt, especially when they get back into more secluded areas. This is the west and hunting can get touch at certain times due to where the elk like to go this time of year. The more efficient and confident you are at shooting will increase shot opportunities. The area is moderate to steep with heavy east facing timber pockets, mixed with open sage and aspen trees on western facing slopes.

The guides for these hunts are seasoned elk hunters that have hunted with archery, muzzleloader, and rifle equipment their entire lives. They have experienced countless successful personal hunts, as well as hunts with clients. You can rest assured that you will maximize your time in the field making every minute count.

This is a 6-day fully guided hunt that includes lodging, meals, guide, and transportation during the hunt.
