What times are most of you who get the re-issued tags actually getting them? I've been unsuccessful this year, but in years past have gotten tags at 11:06am and right at 11am... Mostly 0-2 point tags.

What did you choose? And how was it?

Being retired has it's benefits. Youth, over 55, and residents should have the preference on all these resissued tags.

It didn't matter who drew what tag. I'm saying two of us tried for a close to my home 0 point tag and the other a three point tag. We were miles apart. Now he's got to try for the 0 point tag again tomorrow... The reissued licenses are good for CPW, but a pain for people wanting to pick up...

Different accounts with some help from my Dad. I can't manage two computers at once.

Picked up a three point buck tag today... Had two computers going for different tags, one 0 point tag and one 3 point tag. 3 point tag won. Guess that is what happens when you don't draw the 0 point tag with your 1st choice in the application. For elk, didn't draw in the draw. For leftovers I...

Yeah, hunted 17 several times 1st rifle and MZ. The lower country NF is still full of beef cows through archery. It just doesn't have enough elevation on that side of the divide to hold larger numbers of elk in the early parts of September. 2nd rifle and on can be a bit better as the elk move...

Didn't see an elk or bear... Put on about 30 miles of hiking in five days. HntHrdr I sent you a message

I picked up a leftover bear tag too. So if anyone knows of a place where a carcass is I wouldn’t mind hunting over it. My season is 1st to 4th season.

Hi all, I did a search about unit 19 elk and didn't come up with a whole lot. Basically I am hunting 3rd rifle with my son for YOUTH elk and deer. So it is probably more about opportunity than quality. I've spent one day deer hunting in the unit, multiple days shed hunting, but really don't...

Hey, so I've noticed all the people asking for hunting advice and then never posting a report. The biggest takeaway from this thread was that 16x is enough for elk and deer in Colorado. So here is my follow up... I'm keeping my older 7mm with Nikon BDC that I'm comfortable shooting out to 400...

Thanks everyone... I finally had time to check some out at Scheel's yesterday and decided to just watch sales, etc for something in the 3x15 or 4x16 range. I'll try and remember to post up what I purchase!

Thanks for the replies. It seems everyone has their own opinions on brands and such. I am leaning towards the diamondback tactical, but don't know about the non-illumination. Is an illuminated scope crucial for those early morning or late evening shots?

I'm looking to buy a new 7mm to replace my Remington Model 700. Likely going to buy a Savage, but I'm more concerned with putting a good scope on it. I'll primarily hunt mule deer, elk, and pronghorn with it with mule deer being my primary use for the rifle. I'm looking at the Viper PST...

Wear lots of orange.... Don't bugle or you'll call in other hunters... And if you see any legal bull shoot it... Any raghorn is a trophy in 12/24/23 or flattops...
