Do you have any suggestions on other GMU's.

The biggest problem is that WDFW has broken up the map with lots of smallish areas and then put special hunts in place across the best areas. If it were me, I would go north of 410 and farther east, probably gmu 240 or thereabouts. Not that the Bumping or Goose Prairie areas don't have elk, they just don't have many good bulls, there is too much access for the bulls to get very big. Lots of spikes and cows, the big bulls like the higher, more remote areas. That said, 2 years ago I saw a great bull in that GMU.
Closer to Bellevue there are a lot of bulls, but Western WA hunts tend to be wet and thick undergrowth. But you do have a great chance to bag a bull.
