Think about it: you can go deer hunting next fall and maybe get about four or five hundred pounds of processed meat from a single animal. Go Colorado elk hunting and you can come back home with twice as much meat with a single kill. Elk are much bigger, stronger and more resilient than their white-tailed or black-tailed deer cousins. There's much more danger and adventure in hunting and stalking an elk than there is in the sitting and waiting for a deer. Packages offered by Colorado sportsman's clubs include Colorado elk hunting and a tracker to help the inexperienced. The migration of elk often takes hunters high into the Colorado Rockies, where the views alone are worth the hunting trip. Hunters coming from the hot, humid marshes of the South or the flat wooded lands of the northern Midwest are ecstatic to get such changes in elevation, temperature, prey and sights. There are only a few other animals in the world that hunters can stalk and kill that are more exciting than elk. Alaskan moose is usually the next step once hunters have had the pleasure of elk hunting in Colorado. (It's a continuous upward step in animals and danger.) Share
