Cow Elk with Corey Jacobsen and Randy Newberg

By Bugle Staff

Why do you hunt elk? For the challenge? As a way to experience the outdoors? For the comradery with friends and family? Or maybe it’s all of the above.  

One thing elk hunters can agree on is there is nothing like the taste of elk meat. Hunting bull elk is the ultimate experience for many, but don’t overlook opportunities to chase antlerless or cow elk. Corey Jacobsen says it best, “When it comes to filling the freezer, you can’t eat the antlers!”  

In this new OutdoorClass course “Cow Elk”, Corey Jacobsen and Randy Newberg join forces to explain the reasons why you shouldn’t discount antlerless elk hunts. And if you think hunting a cow is easier than a bull, you might want to think again. 

Corey and Randy cover their “go-to” tactics and strategies for how to find cow elk in every phase of the hunting season. Corey dives into hunting cow elk in the pre-rut and peak-rut, while Randy covers the primary factors that’ll lead you to find cow elk, in the post-rut and late season. With these strategies, you’ll know exactly what to look for in each hunting season and fill your cow elk tag.
