How did everyone do so far?
I know not much is out yet.
I have missed out on goat and sheep....probably take the rest of my life to draw one of those.
awaiting the rest, the excitement is too much!

no desert sheep for me, no mountain goat either. just now have 3 points for goat so next year i will actually have a very small chance. i have my fingers crossed for moose, just a cow as i got a bull in 2004. but will be fun to punch a broadhead through one of those big bitches.
I haven't heard anything but I only applied for deer.
Deer results are supposed to be released June 3rd.Quote:

I've got like 7 preference points for Antelope![Tooth]
Wait, I'm confused...
I know you have to have a liscense to hunt and you can only take what you're liscensed for... but what is this "draw" thing? Is there a lottery for hunting?
i.e. There are 1K deer and 13K hunters, but to keep the balance in the ecosystem you can only take 200 of them?...
Yep the DOW sets limits for how many licenses can be sold for certain game animals.
RGr, thank you.
Bears can eat all they kill.

I think the Northern area's are the ones that take 12 points or more. It only took me three points to draw a pronghorn tag in the Limon area, but my father 12 points to hunt Northern CO (not sure on the unit).
Also, no more deer tags for first rifle in area 43 where we hunt. Seems to be getting harder each year to draw. Before we know it, they'll quit refunding the money and start donating it to gun control.
I am hoping like hell I draw my mulie tag for gunnison area this year! Got my finger, toes and anything else I can possibly cross
Moose
Unit 3, up by Baggs WY, on the Colorado side of course. I've seen more monster size antelope up there than anywhere else.Quote:

Bear is out, I didn't draw and now have 4 pref. points.
I think I will just save those up for a really good area down south to make sure I have pretty good odds of getting one.
anybody know some good areas? I haven't hunted bear before[Swim]
Sniper, I took a bear in unit 85 a while back, west of Walsenburg, good country. Moose is posted as well.

NO moose for me again.... gonna head to MT I guess.
Still no news for me... What are the odds are? Area 20 Late season Deer.. I want a big fat corn feed front range mulie.
Due to the proximity to Boulder they probably only allow 4 tags for the area.
If y'all have any excess jerky (turkey, deer, bear, etc) lemme know!!
I'm hoping to draw my mulie buck tag this year. I didn't draw a tag at all last year. Only the second time in my life. I hunt on the northeastern plains so I generally draw a buck every couple of years. Fingers crossed.

when are draw results for deer supposed to be in? anyone know?
June 3rd
Deer posted today.
[Beer]
Got my Elk tag, but was unsuccessful on deer maybe I will get a leftover draw.
I finally got around to check my draw. Drew Bull for area 36.
Hope its not to crowded this year. Field and Stream did an article on the Best Public Places to hunt in North America. White Rive National Forest was listed as one of the best for Elk.
Got a cow tag for 55, but did n't draw my fawking deer tag, I hope they have left over deer tags for muzzy season in 55, because, It will give me a reason to buy one.
drew private property deer tag! looks like a nice big whitetail may be in my future in the cards line up right[Beer]
got my elk tag for the second year in a row. really excited hope I get a shot at another one this year.[Weight]
Oh shut up!
er, I mean, uh....Good Luck![Coffee]
In case you couldn't tell, I haven't seen an elk for the last two seasons. [Rant1]
Perhaps this year will change that.
got my deer and elk for archery... but gotta buy another habitat stamp... [Rant1]
more money...
Got My Elk but not deer Grrr guess is better than nothing
We all got ours,, guess the Franklin we include in our apps envelope helps,,,
