Mossy Oak Pro Lisa Thompson Tells How to Take Bull Elk on Colorado’s Public Lands

In 12 years, I've harvested eight, 6-point bull elk in Colorado all on public lands. I don’t hunt from a vehicle. I get off the beaten path. When I climb out of my vehicle, I hike back into steep and rugged ravines that most elk hunters won’t hunt. I realize going in that if I harvest a bull, I'll have to carry him out on a frame pack, and I'm okay with that. I bone
