Thanks! I'll get it done tonight!

Remember, NR moose has to be mailed. I think the rest is available online.

This was going to be my first year bulding points in CO. I was going to buy for all the big species for several hundred bucks along with a commitment for thousands more in years to come.

Because of their descent into putrid liberalism, I have passed on almost all species. I am going to build points for mule deer only.

I dropped deer and going moose only now with them. I've invested too much to throw up my hands completely.

Understandably a tough call, Bone. I suppose in this respect I'm fortunate to not be too heavily invested there. Maybe they'll come to their senses and stop going the way of Kalifornia and I'll start buying points in a few years.

bobcat · « **Reply #7 on:** March 31, 2013, 01:23:10 PM »

I'm in for all that's available.

Put in for my deer point last week.

Are you really putting in Bobcat or just trying to stir the pot as usual?

I'll be sitting this one out this year as well.

It's funny how someone takes a stand by only applying for deer. It's like saying that you won't support Buffalo Wild Wings for thier anti gun stance unless you wanted to eat wings. "Cause there just too delicious!"

Yes of course I am. Why wouldn't I? I looked up harvest numbers and you just can't beat Colorado. Elk harvest in 2011 was 43,000. Compare that to Washington's 4,800 elk harvested in 2011. Even Wyoming, which many consider to be one of the best states, only had 22,000 elk harvested, so about half of what was taken in Colorado. I'm definitely going to begin building Colorado points. I see myself spending a lot of time there after I retire. But until then, it's hard to justify the travel time, when I can hunt states that are much closer like Idaho and Oregon.

Just finished my deer app. Doing points first option and high country muzzy second. Good to all

Thanks for the reminder. I will get it done tomorrow.

Points only for me too. I too am way to invested into CO to throw them away now. Hopefully by going points only the law will get repealed by the fall of '14 or beyond.

JPhelps · « **Reply #16 on:** March 31, 2013, 09:02:32 PM »

I'm In again. Guaranteed draw for my points only option

WDFW Hates ME!!! · « **Reply #17 on:** March 31, 2013, 09:06:40 PM »

I'm in for deer and elk. My boy is in for deer. Easily the best deer hunt i have been on to date.

Today's the day

First tried going to the DOW website and it said "server too busy"

Hit refresh a couple times and I was in

Bwana Bob · « **Reply #20 on:** April 02, 2013, 10:50:24 AM »

Just did deer points. I'll have two. Will buy a WY deer and antelope also.

General harvest. Total was over 7,200. But yes, their numbers are much higher. But also consider the competition for them. Colorado is 'known' to be one of the good elk states, and it is the closest elk state to the South; so you get lots of out of staters from there. NM and CO get masses of hunters from Texas like Eastern WA gets wetsiders.

Luckily southerners don't know that you can walk and hunt at the same time
