How to Make a Hunting Plan: A Real Hunt West Session

In this episode, you're getting a front-row seat to a real Hunt West e-scouting session. Jaden sits down with two Colorado elk hunters and walks through the exact process he uses to break down a unit — from figuring out elk behavior in September to identifying terrain features that hold animals, and how to build flexible game plans based on wind, access, pressure, and feed. This is way more than just picking waypoints — it's a deep dive into the Hunt West framework that teaches you how to think about a hunt, not just where to go. Whether you're planning your first western elk hunt or looking to sharpen your e-scouting game, this episode is packed with the goods. We hope you enjoy it! _____ Subscribe to the Hunt West Weekly Email Here >> Learn about Hunt West planning services >>  Follow Hunt West on Instagram >> If you want to go to Argentina, or have other questions about western hunting, contact Jaden at [email protected] Thanks to Bo DePena, a musician, friend, and avid hunter in Colorado, for the intro and outro for the show.
