How did all those who drew a Colorado 4th season deer tag do? I want to hear stories and see pics of some big rutted up bucks!
 
He's not that big but here he is. I shot this guy on the afternoon of the last day of season after jumping him out of his bed on a walk about.

I scouted for four days prior to season and hunted all day every day of season. I even had some good friends and family out looking for me. I passed on some in the same caliber or slightly bigger and passed on a 450 yard shot on a 200 class typical that my buddy Wes had found. I was sure I would be able to get a better shot at him if I was patient but he dissapeared with a hot doe never to be seen again.

I burnt up the boot leather and spent a lot of time behind the glass but 4th season isn't a fish in a barrel type hunt like many think.

I was fortunate enough to have my dad with me when I shot my buck.

I think he was sick of watching me pass bucks so he "encouraged" me to shoot this one.

The weather wasn't much help with no snow and a lot of wind on the last three days of a five day season but it was still a lot of fun to hunt with such little hunting pressure.

The mountains, not the hills.
