They don't have the official results posted, but go here:
http://wildlife.state.co.us/Hunting/BigGame/DrawResultsAndPrefPoints/Pages/DrawResults_PreferencePoints.aspx

put in the info.

on the bottom you can see the current preference points. If you drew your first choice your number should be zero. If you drew your second choice or did not draw, the PP will still be there and you will have to wait and see if you actually did draw.

Mine rolled to 0, so I drew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good!

I didn't apply for archery elk this year. 30+ years and all the old time friends and family are aging enough they aren't going, so not much fun without them.

We're also restricted at work for Paid Time Off usage, September through January 2013. We're not allowed to take more than one day here and then, no weeks or long weekends. Kinda stinks.

Waiting to see if I drew the plains archery deer, Dad has a rancher that wants a herd thinned out.

No antelope or deer for me. I guess it's just over the counter bull this year

I drew antelope and deer, but doesn't look like elk. Both antelope and deer were second choice, so maybe I got a second choice elk.

No deer. Antelope is a go which is my favorite hunt anyway

I hear ya! Last year I took a Wednesday to hunt elk and had to work a Saturday to make up for it. Glad I know how to fill a tag in a day!

This year I cashed in my 9 deer points on a doe tag. I gave up on my dream hunt that still would require another 10 plus years to accumulate prep points. I also drew antelope.

The only thing I got was a promise of a refund check (probably not too quickly though... they can still make interest on everyone's money for a while).


Looks like over the counter for me too.

this is my first year hunting and I am clueless it says "will be mailed" did I win? It says I have 1 preference point for Elk I have no idea what that means

No, sorry. Official results aren't showing for elk yet (at least for me). Soon it will show a table under the "you will be mailed" area and above the points. If this is your first year and it shows a preference point for 2012 you did not draw this year. You can always do over the counter or left overs when they come out later in the year. This is my 4th year, and I got my 1st bull tag this year (unit 20)

But if he applied for a PP first, and then an elk tag, he could have both. Right?

that is correct. or if he didn't draw his first choice and got second...then you get the PP and the license. you only give up your points if you draw 1st choice

I forgot about that... I've always just put in for a 3rd rifle bull tag in unit 20 with a 2nd rifle as 2nd choice. So chances were if I didn't get the 1st choice I wouldn't get the 2nd either.

The system finally updated my elk points (I usually go over the counter and increase my PP's). I currently have 12 elk Preference Points.
