About Elk Hunting
Elk are the second-largest land mammals in North America, weighing around 720 pounds on average. Bulls carry impressive antlers that grow nearly 1 inch per day (when in velvet), typically featuring six tines per side. Antler size correlates with testosterone levels, making late summer and early fall prime hunting seasons.
Getting There
Fly into San Antonio International Airport. The outfitter provides round-trip road transportation from the airport to the lodge (2-hour drive). If driving yourself, head to Junction, Texas where you'll meet your guide at the lodge.
