Hi Guys,
I would like some opinions on how to burn my 8 NR MD points in CO.
I am to the point, to where I have been doing so much research on how to burn these points, that I currently have paralysis by analysis, and I need someone to help me get unwrapped from around the axle....
Below is my current situation:
I am leaning towards 3rd season, but I could be talked into a 2nd season unit if people think that is the best option. However the 3rd season dates align best with my family schedule, and I should be able to hunt the whole 3rd season, as well as scout a couple of days prior.
It would be nice to harvest something over 165", but in all honestly, I would probably shoot a 150"-155" 4x4 on the last day....
I would prefer to apply for MD in an unit that also has OTC elk tags, as my 60 yr old father will be tagging along as well, and I would like him to have the option of having an elk tag in his pocket for coming along on the hunt. My dad is willing to only harvest a cow, as he is just looking for good elk meat. So let me know if there are some good MD units that have easy to draw cow elk tags.
We have discussed weather, and we both are committed to dealing with weather and bad roads if need be. We feel that we have the current tools to deal with most weather related situations/roads etc...
I feel like I am fairly savvy with today's mapping technology, and I have done well on past MD and antelope hunts where there have been private land issues. So I would entertain unit suggestions, even if there are some private land issues.
Thanks for your help!
