Sounds crazy i know but due to work this year i will not get to hunt during the fall months. Soooo i need some options.  I am going to try to draw a montana elk tag to hunt in September and have an outfitter all locked down. BUT sounds like i may not get drawn with only one bonus point.

Give me some other options?

If you have a good reference on outfitter that wouldn't hurt either.

Thanks
Mike

Mike,

That sucks.

KY archery season opens mid September.  SC low country deer hunting starts Aug 15.  September DIY Elk in Colorado.  I'm sure there are other choices.

Spring turkey season is another option.

Also, don't forget Georgia hogs starting in August and closing out (public land) on Feb. 28 every year.

Lots of options.  If you want to head to Georgia next Jan. or Feb. shoot me a PM and we'll plan a trip.

I can't help with an outfitter, but all of those things I mentioned (with possible exception of SC) have lots of public land available.

Kansas and Missouri Whitetail both open the middle of Sept. if you don't mind bugs.

Do a DIY Elk hunt in Colorado.......over the counter tag and you can go early.

Any good velvet whitetail?

Axis deer?

Color phase bears?

Sitka deer?

Hunt for a new job!    

colorado elk or bear anywhere in spring or early fall

colorado elk might be best bet due to available tags.  any good outfiitter recs?

how early in the fall are the bear hunts?  guess bugs would be CRAZY!!!!

Fall bear in Canada... Aug and Sept.

True South Adventures will take you hog and Osceola hunting in South Florida.

Go to Maryland .September - January 31 Whiteteal and Sika with many tages lots of publicly land , or afordabeal guided hunting .

Buy an over the counter elk tag in Montana...; go to Wyoming and hunt mule deer in Sept..; or go to Texas and hunt hogs.

our  ELK,BEAR,DEER AND ANTELOPE ARE ALL AT THE SAME TIME.
Pretty much the entire month of September
You can get every tag VIA APPLICATION WITH NO POINTS

Pigs. The answer is always pigs.

Africa!!

Any recommendations for Colorado elk outfitters?

Velvet whitetail or Muley sounds good too....

Only looked at spring bear and thought that would be too late after finding out about tag in April. Fall bear could work.

What's better than hunting elk from a spike camp or backpack wilderness?

I have a hard time in the fall too.  I don't expect everyone to be able to do it but I just had to not hunt.  Wasn't easy but it was either hunt or work.

You have spring turkey and bear, some deer season open early to mid September.  And Illinois, I'm sure not alone, runs through mid January.  What job has you working 7 days a week for three months?  That sounds like a tough schedule to me.
