Im with you Benha I can not wait for the results. It would be awsome to get drawn. Good luck to everyone that put in this year.

Don't forget that you can hunt out of zone elk this year with the $360 out of zone tag. There are more and more elk outside the restoration counties and this year you only have to telecheck the elk when you harvest one. No more having the warden come out to issue your kill permit for the elk. Same seasons as the regular elk/deer seasons. For those of you that don't get drawn for a permit, you can still hunt KY for elk...just not in the restoration counties.

Bucks2hunt:

If there are Elk in S. IL I doubt they came from the KY restoration program. Those areas are way too many miles from here. That would be one heck of a trip "down the Ohio" even for an elk. There is a possibility that they are lost fenced animals.

No luck for me or my family. Maybe next year. Dont forget the dates for the application will change for 2008.

Did any tradgangers get drawn?

adeeden · August 24, 2007, 05:27:00 PM

Not me, I'll keep trying though!

A young friend of mine was drawn for a cow. He's 12 years old and has been bouncing off the walls since he found out. I'm gonna go with him and his dad to try and scout out some potential areas. Anybody know how much the average mature cow weighs?

cjones · August 24, 2007, 11:49:00 PM

My buddy and i were both shut out this year. Oh well maybe next year.

702plmo · August 25, 2007, 01:21:00 AM

Shannon, I'm glad to hear a youth got as tag. Have fun and good luck. I have no idea how much a cow weighs but if you run out of freezer space let me know I can take some of the nasty tasting elk meat off their hands. LOL

wsm coyote · August 25, 2007, 03:18:00 AM

I've ate it before...blows whitetail meat away!!! If he gets one, thay'll not be a piece of meat as big as your thumb left on that thing when we're finished with it. Course, i'm not counting my chickens just yet but I hear the success rate is pretty high.

"Anybody know how much the average mature cow weighs"

I heard about 350# field dressed.
Hope to get an exact figure - I was drawn!!

I know at least one other tradgang memeber got drawn..unfortunatley it wasn't me, or my brother, or my dad.

Steve H. · August 25, 2007, 01:01:00 PM

Geez not even one tag for an Alaskan! Guess I will have to see if we have anything to hunt here instead!

702plmo · August 25, 2007, 01:07:00 PM

good luck steveb. I saw where a person from NY was drawn.

Shannon, Didn't realize I had another TradGanger in my area till now. I know WeekendWarrior from T-ville, you all share the same last name.

If you want some good East Ky elk info, holler at me. My bro-in-law guides some over there. I'm sure he could help you out.
