The elk is this area are not native, however, they have been re-introduced to certain areas for hunting and conservation. Elk were abundant in northwestern Mexico, and specifically in this area, until they were hunted indiscriminately and exterminated over 100 years ago. This family operation has had their ranch since the 1800's, and they were an integral part in the re-introduction of this elk herd. This ranch is an ideal habitat for elk, so the owners bought the best specimens they could find in the Southwestern U.S., and began to reintroduce them in 2008. Since then, they’ve done wonderfully, and the herd has grown exponentially. Today there are conservatively over 300 elk that call these Mexican pine covered mountains their home.
Originally, they began hunting the elk with rifles. Over time, they have found the best way to keep all of the elk in the area, and minimally disrupt the herds, is to hunt them with Archery equipment only. The terrain is very conducive to archery hunting, and the topography, in combination with the various types of vegetation makes for a very fun and challenging and achievable hunt all around. Hunters have the opportunity to pursue the elk in the prime of the rut. With more meadows, valleys, canyons, water and wallows than can be imagined, sneaking in on a bull in his wallow or calling a bull into archery range is a daily occurrence.
