Took 20 years, but if I read the back door right, I drew Colorado this year. 

Unit 61 second season!

Thanks Ridgerunner!  Should be a good hunt. 

Anyone else have any Colorado elk luck?

I know I won't get my first choice, takes like a dozen to get it and I have one. But... should draw my cow tag.


Good luck to everyone who put in!

Good work.  Hope to join on the winning side. 

How does the backdoor work?  I log in to buy a tag and it still shows unit applied info.....

I drew my cow tag and my deer tag (about a 25% chance of drawing that with one point).

Going to get an OTC bull tag and will be able to hunt for a cow, 4+ bull, and buck in the same unit, at the same time  :IBCOOL:



Be the first time I'll finally be able to use the AI hunting  :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL:

Unit 76 archery here. Only took 15 years. I'm still sitting on 15pp for deer and have no idea where I'm going to use them.

Congrats!  Should be a good hunt.  We had considered 76 for several years and were going to go on a drop hunt if we drew it. 

You should have a really great deer hunt coming up!
