John's Journal... Entry 216, Day 4 SCOTT BOULANGER - CONFESSIONS OF AN ELK-HUNTING OUTFITTER Prepare To Hunt Elk Editor's Note: Thirty-eight-year-old Scott Boulanger, an outfitter from Darby, Montana, a guide and instructor at Circle KBL, has a very busy hunting schedule, including guiding for elk, deer, bear and mountain lion. Success on a Boulanger hunt depends on the weather, the physical condition of the hunter, the hunter's willingness to hunt and a little good luck. This week Boulanger shares with us anecdotes from his vast experience as an elk outfitter. Question: How many bull elk would you expect to take
if you had 10 guides go out for six days? Question:
How old is too old to be hunting elk? I have a friend, who lives right down the road, who just turned 70-years old a few months ago. He is out hiking it today, with a backpack on and his gun. He keeps himself thin and fit. He packed in back up to the Idaho border, with an eight-hour horseback ride, he went in there with four mules, all of his feed and set up his camp and hunted for a whole week up there. For more information on hunting elk, contact Scott Boulanger with Circle KBL Outfitters at P.O. Box 733, Darby, Montana, 59829; (406) 821-0017; email: elkhunter@circlekbl.com or visit the Web site at www.circlekbl.com. TOMORROW: WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT WITH CIRCLE KBL OUTFITTERS
