How’s the deer numbers this year ? Anyone seeing any good bucks , or are the numbers that low in that unit also? I had to turn my tag back in due to a broken ankle and won’t be hunting this year …
What town are you talking about ?I've seen a few bucks in the back of pickup but nothing special. Report from south of town is fewer deer being seen than normal and larger numbers of hunters than other years. Lots and lots of hunters in town.
Yes sir I am , I’ve hunted this unit numerous times and was just curious . If I diddnt have a broken ankle with screws in it , I would have defently been there .You're not hunting yet interested in all the info? The unit did get hit and isn't as good as it used to be.
In Rangely. Rancher is correct in the southern part of the unit and towards GJ with different wintering groups. The north part took a beating.What town are you talking about ?
I hunt a little north of grand junction The rancher said winter didn’t seem really bad down there I guess I’ll find out here soon enough.
Sad I was hoping to go there next yearDad was there for the whole season with some family friends who had buck tags who applied for them even after we advised them not too… ended up killing one 170ish type deer and the others went home empty. Typical unit 21… decent numbers of 2.5 to 3 year old type deer and very very very few mature age class deer… the ship sailed there 10 to 15 years ago.
I am in the same boat should of drawn out a few years ago big mistake on my part....Sucks that was hunt I was waiting for. Sitting on 12 points and don't know where to put in. Probably throw a dart at the map and just draw something next year
Sounds like every unit in colorado anymoreThis would be a disappointing 12 point hunt
Thats what I've heard from everyone. A 140-150 unit definitely isn't worth the points it's taking in my opinion.If you guys want a solid chance at a 140 to 150 inch buck, unit 21 is for you…. It’s a tough hunt any more if you’re after 4 year old or older bucks…

Can't speak on this area in particular but take the doom and gloom with a grain of salt. Most the guys killing big deer aren't talking about it allot. You'll always hear more bad then good cause the guys not killing chit have allot to say. Colorado's worst areas are better then some wyo areas that take alot of non resident pointsThats what I've heard from everyone. A 140-150 unit definitely isn't worth the points it's taking in my opinion.
Woah there pilgrim that wasn't a personnel attackYeah… especially the doom n gloomers that live in Rangely and work every day of their lives in unit 21… they don’t know chit…
