Kentucky’s annual elk hunt drawing takes place Saturday as part of the Kentucky Elk and Outdoor Fest in Bardstown. John Hast is the Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources’ bear and elk program coordinator. He said they received more than 77-thousand applications for three types of permits.
“Folks have the option to choose from a bull gun tag, a cow gun tag or an either sex archery tag, so you can do our pick three. We’ll be drawing 500 permits this year.”
