Legal Tender

[WapitiTalk1]

So, most of the permits have been drawn and I assume many of you cats have planned on or have bought your resident or OOS OTC tags. What is a legal elk where you will be hunting come hunting season this fall. Bull only, 3 PT or better, spike, cow, calf, any elk? Regardless, it's getting close

[Bowhunter]

A legal elk would be a calf,cow or bull. The bull must be a 4pt or better.

[LckyTylr]

In my unit, I can kill ANY Elk for Archery Season, and then for Rifle Season, it switches to Spike ONLY, which I refuse to do. I see no point in purposely shooting an immature bull that may or may not have great potential, I'll never understand that.

[BrentLaBere]

Brow-tined bull or antlerless elk.

[otcWill]

4 pt. on one side or a 5 inch brow tine...... or a cow

[ElkNut1]

With archery equipment any elk is legal in our part of Idaho.

[Harmy]

This season my luck ran out and did not draw any tags for any sex or species. Fisrt time in my life I was completely skunked. Thus this year it is OTC any bull.

[FemoralArchery]

Like Paul and Tyler have said, here in Idaho its any elk for OTC archery for me, too.

I have another chance to draw a controlled hunt tag in the second drawing. We'll see how that goes, plus I have an extra cow tag in my pocket for this year.

Any elk in archery, any elk in gun for a couple weeks then cow only. I love that, bulls until the end then work on filling the freezer.
