Utah's special youth elk season offers excellent rut hunting
When Hunts.Net Customer Frank Simpson had two sons draw special tags for Utah's September youth elk season, he called us for advice. Rich LaRocco of Hunts.Net arranged a private-land hunt at a price that Frank could afford for both sons. These pictures show the results. If you have daughters or sons in the 14- to 16-year-old category, be sure to apply in January for this hunt. Prices vary from about $2,500 to $4,000. The less expensive hunts take place on private or private-access land where hunters in September would have a good chance of taking a 4x4 to small 6x6 bull. The more expensive hunts typically occur in an area where a selective hunter would have a good chance at a nice 6x6. Call for details.
