I hope this newsletter finds everyone doing great! Elk season is just 5 months away and will be here before we know it! We have some very exciting things going on at Elk101.com, and want to take just a second to share some of them with you.

First off, FREE gear! We really like giving free gear away, and we have created several opportunities for you to win. We are holding a referral contest in the Elk101.com Forums and giving away some great gear from Sitka, The Archery Program, and Bugling Bull. It’s simple – the 3 people who refer the most new members to sign up will win the prizes! Click here for more details, but hurry, this contest ends tomorrow!

We’re excited to announce the 1st Annual Elk101.com Internet Elk Calling Championships! There are no excuses not to enter…just send us an audio (or video) clip of your elk calling routine and tell all your friends to come vote for you! We have some GREAT prizes, including a Sitka Gear package, tons of elk calls from Bugling Bull, elk decoys from Heads Up Decoy, and a $100 gift certificate to the Elk101.com Store! Audio clips must be received by Friday, April 22nd , and voting will begin on Monday, April 25th! Plus, everyone who enters the contest will receive a FREE Elk101.com “All-Star” diaphragm!

And if that wasn’t enough….we’ve teamed up with our friends at Winterhawk Outfitters again this year and are excited to announce the 2011 “Let’s Go Hunting” $10,000 Free Elk Hunt Giveaway! You could win a FREE 1-on-1 guided elk hunt in Colorado (archery or rifle), airfare, a new rifle or bow, Sitka Gear, boots, taxidermy, and much more…a value of over $10,000! Additionally, Winterhawk has asked me to accompany the lucky hunter on this hunt as your personal caller! Visit the link to get signed up now!

The Elk101.com Store is now up and we’re anxiously awaiting the new shipment of 2011 Sitka Gear coming in June. We’ll once again have a full line of Sitka Gear to make sure you’re covered when you hit the hills this fall! To get it kicked off, we’re currently offering a 20% off discount on our stock of Sitka Celsius Vests plus FREE Shipping!

Lastly, for anyone who has an interest in videoing their hunts, you have to check out this opportunity! Elk101.com Pro Staff member and producer of the Extreme Bulls DVD series, Steve Chappell, is holding a 3 day Professional Videography School in May! This would be a great way to boost your next elk hunting video into the Top 3 in the next Elk101.com Elk Hunting Video Contest this fall!

With elk season quickly approaching, now is the time to start getting in shape if you haven’t started already. Good luck, be safe, and have a great spring!

See you in the elk mountains,
