Any recommendations?

Sitting on 11 PP for elk. Looking to cash in the next year or two. Still debating about diy or outfitted. Probably archery but not sure on that either. Any advice?

Table Mountain Outfitters

I don’t have any outfitters advice, but the nice thing about Wyoming is if you draw a tag out there, it’s essentially for both archery and rifle if you’re willing to pay the archery permit fee. But if you’re hunting with an outfitter, I guess that’s a whole different deal versus if you’re just hunting by yourself and don’t score on archery then you can go back out with the rifle later. I’m hoping to hunt out there within the next handful of years. Good luck!! Happy trapping! ScottW

Chamley Outfitting, Blake is a machine and his success rate with his archery hunters is outstanding. He does it all pretty much including Big Horn Sheep if I’m not mistaken.

Not with a bow, the outfitter I guide lion hunts for there is a small outfiter, doesn't advertise and only takes a few hunters but has an excellent success record on elk with a rifle, but he quit taking bow hunters at least 20 years ago.

Especially if you're bow hunting, get in better shape. Doesn't matter how good of shape you think you're in, work at getting in better shape. The better shape you are in, the more versatile you are, and the more options you/your guide has. There is a direct corollary between how in shape your hunters are and what your chances of success are.

X2,went with them the last 2 years two great hunts.

Chamley does a good job on Elk and sheep. He could still be hunting Elk here till last of Jan.

I went after elk back in 1990 DIY and did 12 hunts in CO till 2008, once more in UT 2014. We figured go more often, pay the licence fee, but learn as we went. I killed 4 bulls and one cow, never succeeded with a bow, mostly muzzloader kills, 6x6 in UT was with a rifle and took 15 points and some luck to draw that tag. I was 35 when I started and have gotten too old for DIY hunts out west for elk.

Horse Track outfitters if you want a real backcountry experience. Out of Pray Montana. Long ride back in there somewhere around the Thoroughfare I think.

What kind of a hunt, back country or easier terrain ? Horseback or atv/vehicle type of hunt?

11 PPs is kind of no mans kind but some areas to draw. Type 9 archery tags do not allow you to hunt with a rifle later, keep that in mind.

Not a fan of Table Mt but that is personal, they try to lease up everything. They do take some decent animals, and many so so animals.

Have you looked over the draw odds for areas you can draw? https://wgfd.wyo.gov/media/30130/download?inline

With only 11 points don't get your hopes up. Area 67 type 9 bow hunt has always had left over tags for you look at.

I'm in excellent shape, far better than the average person. Last time I went Elk hunting I laid down and decided to die on my way back out (Not really but I felt like it). The altitude is a killer for us flat landers.

Want a real wilderness hunt, Bald Mtn/Pollards out of Pinedale. Love them and their hunts. I stopped going with them because my hunting buddy can't ride a horse anymore due to his back. I miss the true wilderness hunt.

Climb some taller trees and get that wind back!

Thanks everyone for the responses.
Looked it up and I actually have 14 points for elk and 13 for deer. 15 for moose but think that’s a dead end with point creep.
For elk, thinking back country (horseback) archery most likely. Need to look into draw odds more. And consider the point creep in the top-end units.
Have hunted elk in CO a handful of times. Some DIY, some outfitted (semi-guided), all on foot, have taken 4 bulls, so sort of know what I’m getting myself into.
Thanks again, and thanks for any additional advice.

I'd look to the NW part of the state and go guided over there . With your PPs you may get quite a deal on a hunt if you are willing to party app and share some of them for a general tag.
Several outfitters have been advertising discounts or free hunts for sharing of higher PP totals on FB.
A couple of outfits have horseback in but cabins to stay in, great for grizz country.
