When do they come out? EDIT.... Nevermind I found it on their site after looking a little better.
Yeah didn't get my moose tag,,,,,
I only put in for a PP. I have 3 after this. starting to build for bighorn and mountain goat as well.
won't draw for antelope and I possibly will get deer, but might hunt general archery if I don't get drawn. Might do archery antelope as well if I can find the time off.
Will hunt elk one way or another. put in for muzzleloader, but might end up with archery, either way as long as I hunt elk I am happy![Beer]
Have 9 weighted point and 3 points,,,better chance of going to WY..
Archery lopes here as well in south park lots of em and no one hunts em so chances are better.
Elk only for cow,s 3rd rifle...
after your first 3 points then they become "weighted" points, 12 years later stil shit.
even putting in for Cow first choice has no results.
Hell I had one in my yard yesterday.
In South Park there is unit 51 Rienicker Ridge and alot of State land along 9 and then around Antero, seen some real nice bucks around there.
Got 2 shots last year with the bow near the ridge. they be fast suckers.
My dad actually drew a moose tag ~8 years ago. Muzzle loader. He only put in for 7 years I think. Not sure what area, but I can ask for you. And yes, he got one.
Still waiting to hear about my elk tag for this year...
Lots of 'lopes in South Park. I always see tons of them from Kenosha Pass on 285 into Fairplay, then again on 40 (I think?) as you come up on Spinney and Eleven Mile Reservoirs. Most of them are on private land, but there are some SWAs (Tomahawk is one, I think) in between 285 and 40. There are at least 2 entrances along Elkhorn...Elkhorn Mtn. Road...something like that...it runs between 285 and 40 a few miles S or W for that matter on 285 from Jefferson.
Elk draw has been posted.
got elk tag
I just got an archery tag, didn't draw muzzleloader for a 3rd year in a row[Bang]
but it was expected!
now I have a full month!
Wow I got one on a draw! I put in for deer only this year and drew one with only one preference point. Has to say something about the area I choose. I have been turkey hunting in this spot for two springs now and saw plenty of deer then. We will see come fall if I'm even still here come then.
As I (mis)posted in another thread, I drew out a deer tag and will go over-the-counter bull at the same time. Hopefully, I'll be able to pick up an over-the-coutner bear tag as well. I got one last year and it was the first year in some time that I never laid eyes on a bear.
Only drew archery deer. Have a whole month, but hope it only takes one weekend. Either sex tag and shooting first doe I see inside of 40 yards. Already bought some new spices and rubs from BPS.
OK, this is goofy. Wife sends in for cow elk our area we live in.
Dow sends letter stating she didn't put in the resident since info so no tag.
However she gets to get a left over tag by just re submitting the app.
DUH,,, all the info is in the puter, why not just send the fuki'n tag the first time if you are gonna give it to her anyway....
I Luv the Gubment.
My wife's fishing license says Hunter's Ed is verified and has the number on it. She just got her cow tag which says Hunter's Ed card is required.
I've got a great idea! Let's turn our health care to the government! They do so well with everything else. [Bang]
Obama,,Obama,,, he's our savior,, and still the gubment organizations can't get off their asses, and do anything right,,,,,,,.....
Not their fault it is what it is...
I drew a muzzleloader cow elk, my dad drew a bull tag.
He got his about 5 days ago in the mail, I still haven't got mine yet. huh...
I understand the delay from the application deadline to the draw, they have to get some game numbers together for each area and re-evaluate how many healthy animals the particular area can handle and this takes some time, but...
What I dont understand, in this computer age, is why they can't use the computers to print the successful permits and checks for those who were unseccessful (or just getting PP) and get them in the mail within 2 days (that's being generous). Why on earth does it take WEEKS for this to occur? Are they using the homeless to process all of this? Or is it that they want to hold onto your money just a little bit longer for the interest they are drawing?
With that said, if you are just requesting a Preference Point, why can't you just submit the $3 app fee and they update your points by May 1st? They certainly cash the checks quickly enough. Again, in this computer era, the processing shouldn't take long @ all.
Money shifting! I do not like CO DOW! WY on the other hand is leaps and bounds better. That being said I have had great experiences with the Wardens in the field and two people down at the regional office.
Well, I bought my over-the-counter Bull licence for 2nd season as well as an over-the-counter bear license today. Since I also drew out for a buck I feel that I have a FAIR chance of actually harvesting an animal this year.
I gave CO DOW money for free this year! Got a tag and won't be here to use it! That's a stimulus plan!
that sucks
GunTroll,
You can turn in your tag and get your money back, if I'm not mistaken.
Calvin - you are NOT mistaken. I drew out a deer tag in 2005 but had to sell it back because I was unemployed and couldn't afford to go to a separate area from where I was going elk hunting.
The CO DOW gives you the option of either getting your Preference Points, or your money back - but not both. Given your situation GunTroll, I'm guessing you'd prefer the cash. The only hitch is that you have to go to an actual DOW office to get it.
not sure about that, my cousin in FL drew a tag but due to a needed back surgery will not be able to use it so they sent him some paperwork and he will get his money back.
I knew that option was available for out-of-state tagholders, but I didnt know it was available to in-state tagholders.
I guess what I really meant to say is that you can't just go to your local Wal-Mart or any other DOW ticket agent to get a refund, it has to go directly through the DOW.
you can get a refund as long as you turn the tag back in before the season starts. go to wal-mart and take a look at the regulations.
EVERYONE needs to read that book each season to keep up on everything.
You're absolutely right about that Sniper. I usually give it a quick browse on and off throughout spring and summer but read the regs from front cover to back just before hunting season begins - it keeps me on the proper side of the law.
Regs?
