CO Muley with 6 points

ironranger · Jan 13, 2015

2 guys I hunt with want to use our points for muley this fall. I've been researching the net and CO website for stats and comments on units that we could possibly draw. Anyone have any input on which would be better unit in terms of public land, etc. I'll keep looking out and researching but thought I'd ask. Units/seasons (Rifle) I'm looking at thus far are the following.... Unit 22 3rd, Unit 25 4th, Unit 70 3rd, Unit 79 4th, Unit 80 4th, Unit 82 4th, and Unit 551 3rd....any info would be appreciated....

You might consider waiting until next year with the favorable dates.

He is talking later dates. For example, this year 3rd rifle starts 10/31 and next year it starts 11/5

I would double check moon and dates as well! However the danger with waiting a year is not knowing how much the points might jump in a unit! I would suspect that unit 22 3rd season will jump as will the 4th season tags!

I am not sure anyone of the units is better than the others and a lot will depend on weather! Unit 22 is a prime example, late migration and the unit pretty darn hard. Good migration and it can be a great. A unit with higher country might get too much snow and make access hard or not enough snow and allow the deer to hide in deep timber!

All of them are pretty good options!
