This week, we're looking back at the 2022 elk rut. I hunted elk all over the US this season with good friends, had a bunch of highs, and a bunch of lows. That's elk hunting. But, as always, I learned a lot of valuable lessons along the way. So this week on Cutting the Distance, I'm doing a post-mortem of my archery elk season, and highlighting the greatest lessons I've learned this year.

Jon dives into scouting year round to figure these bucks out, setting stands once he has found a target buck, how he plays the wind with stand locations, and how he goes about getting a buck to walk by his stand.
