Hey Guys,
I am new here but have been reading about hunting for a while. I am from Texas and I am in college and have no time to hunt but I would like to start investing points for later when I can hunt. I would like to start by applying for points in Utah, Colorado and Wyoming. I have read as much as I can but I still have a few things I can't figure out. Three main things.
First, for Utah, they have different terminology than the rest with the limited entry, general season and once in a lifetime. I would like to apply for a decent hunt where I can get a nice deer and elk but not a premium- wait your whole life type hunt. I thought limited entry was the best for this, so I put in for a preference point only for deer limited entry. It seems I am not able to also put in for limited entry elk preference point? Is this true or am I correct? For 5 extra dollars, an elk point would be nice. Should I do a point for general deer and a preference for limited elk instead?
Second, for Colorado, when is the online application available? It seems like it should be right now, but every time I go on there it is closed to buy and apply online once I enter all my info etc.. Can I put in for an elk and deer point here without applying for a tag?
Third for Wyoming, the points are very expensive. I would like to put in for an elk point and a deer point but a deer point sure is expensive and my friend says drawing for a nonresident is not too difficult. Is this a pretty good consensus?
Thanks for the help for a newbie. There sure is a huge learning curve on this stuff but hopefully by the time I have a few points, I will be ready to put in. Nathan
