| Alberta Elk Hunting Alberta Rocky Mountain elk is hard to match! Elk hunting is very challenging, but the rewards are impressive! Non-residents are only permitted to shoot six-point or better bulls in most zones and this management regime allows the majority of bulls to reach maturity, resulting in a higher than average number of trophy bulls. Although there are some areas that a 3x3 is minimum, Alberta’s elk mature quickly and it is not uncommon for three-year-old bulls to sport 6x6 racks. Archery elk hunting begins in late August and early September and is permitted in most zones before the rifle season begns. During the early hunts, when the elk are in rut, the favored method of hunting is bugling and cow calling, trying to draw the bull to you rather than you going to it. The rut often lasts into mid-October and the action can be as good, if not better, at this time of year, as bulls compete to find the few remaining open cows. As the rut draws to a close, bulls leave the cows and begin to form bachelor herds that will often remain together until the following year’s rut. Spot and stalk becomes the method of choice now, as bulls are drawn to prime feeding areas to replenish fat reserves for the impending winter.
