Although I’m not a fan of power belts I would stick with “what shoots great at 100 yards”. Not really sure how much you would pick up shooting open sights. Guess that depends on your eyes.

Not I.

You are also shooting “P” which is probably closer to 110. Had same problem (tumble) with original power belts. I’d reduce powder charge.

One pair of good merino wool socks in a pair of 400g Crispi’s wether it’s 20 or 70 degrees.

With 2 points currently for elk I’m opposed, but with 15 points for deer I’m for it ?. Im guessing CPW won’t let me have it both ways.

I tried to go back but the survey blocks repeat access once it is completed. They survey asked how many points for each species (deer, elk, antelope, etc) you have and then went on to ask your preference for point banking for each species (very favorable to not favorable at all). It...

I received it and have 15 pts for deer as a NR. Would like to get out of the point game and focus on units easier to draw. Seems like this may make those type units harder to draw in general.

Anyone else receive a point banking survey today from CPW via email? “Colorado Parks and Wildlife would like your help with a survey we are conducting with high preference point holders in Colorado. The Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission is considering implementing a preference point...

To each his own. Gjkimber45 stated that….”YES!!! I had a great time with my son and friend, seen some great country”. More power to him. Cherish family, the ones your with, and memories made. Most times the experience is bigger than the score.

Greg at Freeman’s Guest Ranch on 149 offers drop camps. He packed out an elk for me bout 5 years ago. I believe it’s called Lone Ridge now.

Padfoot how is the quality on your tz? I was looking as something a bit smaller. The 2200 or 1500.

Deer8hunter I'm looking for the same thing. Has anyone used or checked out tenzing maybe a tz

Nice buck....congats. Glad it all worked out for you.

There is a little campground just southwest of diamond peak that may work for you. Take 72 east off of 10 about 9 miles. Bring extra gas as it's very remote and also I would recommend a atv. You can get around in a truck but the roads are rocky and rough so the arc is a much better option...

That is good news! Looking forward to a late November run out there to see what the pup can shake up for me.

Hey Gator, Those pictures were awesome and got me pumped to head out for some ringnecks. Thanks for the tips..it's much appreciated. I'll see what my schedule does and if I can make it out earlier than planned I'll give you a shout. Matt

Hi Gator and Huntfool2. Seen your post running here and hoping you two can bump me in the right direction. I missed my colorado elk draw which seemed like a sure thing. I always wanted to take my F Brits to South Dakota and it looks like this year is it as plan B. I plan to go the day...

I log onto CPW online lisxening site and it says I owe $40 for elk. I assume that's for a point and I didn't draw. I see nothing for deer yet. Anyone else seeing that.

Jq23 I hunted the unit three years ago and I would consider adventurewriter?s initial assessment to be spot on. Not sure about migration patterns but wouldn't worry about that with bow muzzy or first rifle. As far as drainages.....check maps and pick some to take a look at. From my...

Thanks for the advice fellas I appreciate it. Gopher1 I never looked at 53.

Thanks elkduds. What is the change in payment for applications for nr?s

Mostly near Florence.

Hunted elk during the muzzy season. That's my preferred weapon but would also do archery or rifle.

My buddy and I are NR's and have 10 pts each. I've been looking at units for a few years and for grins looked at what was possible to draw with 10 pts and put the options on paper with hunt codes, drawn out numbers and success rates. Also included resident stats while I was at it. We are...

Yep, here in Wisconsin they reintroduce wolves with a management goal of 300-325 wolves. They reached that goal and instituted a hunting/trapping season to manage them and it seemed to be working well. After 3 years the bunny huggers sued and got them placed back on the endangered species...

Unit 76 1st rifle or muzzy. Freeman?s Guest Ranch would be a good place to contact on 149.

Thanks Lawrence. Hopefully it's a little info to get the someone else started in the unit(s) if they want to give it a try.

Figured I would answer my own question on the unit posted earlier and add a little insight into the unit(s). There is a place in Canyon City to fill up with water. It's the shell station next to Big Daddy's dinner on Hwy 50 on the west end of town. Never did find a plaice to freeze meat...

Gave it another shot. Also sent to your gmail.

Picked up a second season rifle cow tag for my son for the unit. His first time in Colorado and it's a unit I want to check out for a possible future hunt. Did a ton of research and scoured maps and have a plan to start (up cty rd 12, SW of Waugh Mnt). Looks like a lot of private ground...

Watched the list for an elk tag for the last 2 days. Like others said they go extremely fast and if your not watching they are gone by the next update (5 min). I'm guessing I've seen 25-30 elk tags go that way. Also found out that just because you have a tag in the shopping cart on website...

I've been scanning the list regularly 50+ since the 2nd. Interested in about 5 elk tags/units. Haven't noticed any additions to the list but again I'm just looking at those units.

You should have a blast. Smoke pole hunted it last year. In general get off the roads a mile ++ in some harder to reach areas and you should have some space. Can't speak for 1st rifle but I would assume from the bugling I heard that you shouldn't have Trouble hearing them if you move around...

"I want this jacket"

I use the online site (link below) for researching areas and maps. I print air photo and a topo back to back and then get them laminated. http://ndismaps.nrel.colostate.edu/index.html?app=HuntingAtlas

I agree with the physical conditioning. That's probably more important than the scouting vs hunting days as if you get a bit of altitude sickness you'll be shot. I've done high country hunts and ever time with the exception of last year I lost a day or two because of it (head aches, fatigue...
