First time on the local forum. Moved to Southern Oregon this past summer from the Bend area. Lifetime shooter, hunter and reloader. I haven’t had time to shoot yet in this area but would like some feedback on the Jackson County shooting park. I have been on LRH for years. Mostly read articles but don’t post much. I have never hunted elk, only deer and small game in CA, Utah, Kentucky and Tennessee. I’m older now so I don’t hunt those mountains
Like I did in my 40s.

Welcome! Jackson County shooting park is good for practice. Elk hunting’s different, but your experience with deer and small game will help a lot.

When we lived in Central Oregon we had elk in the back yard. Herd migrated by every week or so. I counted more than 60

Welcome!

Thanks. Now that we are somewhat settled I will get out to the shooting complex to check it out unless someone has other suggestions.

Welcome from Wickiup Junction!


Not many Elk on my property but lotsa deer almost everyday!

When we lived south of Bend the deer would get into everything.
