Just wondering if any other Tradgangers hunt the breaks other then me? I have hunted a few different areas for the last 12 years but last year I seen two trad hunters threw my spotter. In all the years of hunting elk there I have only seen 3 trad hunters. Of corse I try to hunt where others dont.
I was there this year Gary. Week of Sept 19th.
With temps in the upper 80's, it was plenty warm, but had a great time.
Born and raised in MT and first time to hunt the Breaks.
Where in MT do you live?

I hunted in the breaks for the first and last time in the fall of 2000. I had moved to Lewistown that year and wanted to check out what everyone else was talking about. It wasn't for me. I much prefer hunting elk in the mountains wether it is the Snowies, the Continental divide by Butte, or the North end of the Big Hole. I like to hunt where the trees are thick enough that I won't see them until they are close enough to shoot, then you just have to be able to find a hole to shoot through! :thumbsup: That is where I have had my problems. Getting so excited I forgot to pick a spot and shooting over their back at less than 20 yards is also hard to swallow :banghead: Someday I will get it all put together. Joseph
I enjoyed my years in the breaks.It was my favorite place to hunt elk.Can get warm in Sept. One year it topped 100 6 days running.
I have hunted it twice! Not your typical elk hunt! Did miss a bull there my first time out!
