John's Journal... Entry 122, Day 1 ELK HUNTING WITH RENOWNED OUTDOORSMAN, STEVE PUPPE How Puppe Became An Elk-Hunting Guide EDITOR'S
NOTE: Steve Puppe, a member of the Mossy Oak Hunt Team, grew up in
the wildlife-rich hills of southeastern Minnesota in Hamilton. At a very
young age Puppe followed in his father's footsteps as they hunted white-tailed
deer. As Puppe became older, he branched out into wild turkey hunting
and competition calling, winning numerous state and national titles, including
nine state championships. For the past 25 years, Puppe has been very fortunate
to gain a wealth of hunting knowledge and experience, which has given
him the opportunity to be featured in several hunting videos and national
magazines. He currently is a co-host of the popular television series
"Outdoor Expeditions" on the Outdoor Channel. Puppe enjoys sharing
his knowledge and experience with hunters -- young and old alike. During
his seminars, Puppe shares tactics that have proven successful for him
to consistently harvest numerous Pope & Young whitetails, maturing
spring gobblers and bugling bull elk. This week Puppe will tell us about
his experiences hunting elk and will walk us through some of the most-
overlooked steps to elk-hunting success. QUESTION:
