KEEP THAT MOUTH SHUT!

Elk have very sensitive ears regardless of what other hunters say about Elk.  I have experienced it far too many times to be proven wrong.   Their hearing is just as good as their eyes, and they can see Orange... GO WITH CAMO at all times and keep that red and hunter orange in the pack!

The best hunters have learned that the wind shifts constantly, and must be continuously monitored.  The wind is alive... it flows like moving water, carrying your scent of danger to a supersensitive nose.   The Elk WILL SMELL YOU BEFORE YOU SEE THEM.

CONTROL YOUR SMELL

Wearing outerwear washed in non-scent soap and stored in a clean plastic bag.  Take care to never touch anything with the bare skin when traveling to and from your Elk Stand will make all the difference in the world.
