Guide School & Packer Training - Hunting, Fishing & Camp Cook School

A Guide School Student's Journal

Today was a blast! We practiced our hunting skills by splitting up into small groups and the instructors acted like a bull elk. We had a hunter with us (fellow student) and we had to stalk the "bull", set up the "hunter" and bugle them in. Boy, the instructors made good elk. They would run off if we were being too noisy or if the wind was wrong. GREAT PRACTICE!!

In the afternoon, back at camp, Cody lectured on more hunting and stalking techniques, elk habits and prime habitat plus the importance of glassing and good optics and what to look for when scouting.
