Utah Antlerless Elk

[DanD]

Yesterday I received a successful letter from Utah.  I got drawn for the Fillmore, Pahvant zone for cow and Fillmore, Pioneer Creek for doe.

How did everybody else do, any word yet?  I think the results are posted on their web page on Thursday.

If anybody is familier with the Fillmore, Pahvant area I sure would appreciate any info that you might have.  This is an area that I have not hunted before so I'm pretty much in the dark right now.  Thanks in advance for any info.

DanD,
    Did you draw the first or second season? I have hunted alot in the area and will hunt deer there this year. I am originally from the area. I think we talked last year. I think you are in the Santa Clarita area if I'm not mistaken. I live in West Hills in the valley. Maybe I could trade you some info. on where to hunt up in that area. Let me know.

Willowcrick,

I drew the first hunt for Pahvant, it's 11/2 - 12/8,  Their is a earlier hunt over in Oakcreek.  Yes I do believe I talked to you earlier this year after the Boulder hunt in January.  

What did you put in for this year?  What did you draw?  I'd love any info you have on the Fillmore area.  I never been up their.  I'm shooting for a scounting trip in October.  I'll send you a message.  

Thanks,

DanD,
  I will be hunting farther east and later in Jan. I usually put in for hunts that go into Jan. because there aren't as many people and I can hunt ducks and geese one last time. I'm from the little town of Fayette, Ut. If you look on your map east of Pioneer Cyn. there is the town of Gunnison and north of that Fayette. Right there is the Sevier river which is just awesome for birds. We have our gun company in Fayette so though I live here in L.A. I always think of that as home. I will be hunting deer  in the Mount Catherine area which is just south of Pioneer. You won't have a problem with a doe especially if you go around Thanksgiving which is peak rut time. I can give you alot of hints about elk but the 2 most important things for success are good glass and good boots. We'll have to talk.
