Deer, elk and pronghorn landowner vouchers! - $1 (Colorado)



Colorado Parks and Wildlife is trying to give more of your hunting tags to landowners.

Senate bill 13-188 proposes to raise the percentage of tags landowners receive west of I-25 from 15% to 20%, and east of I-25 to 25%. Think about how this will affect your chances to draw tags in years to come!

Please write or call your Representatives and Senators and urge them to vote NO on SB13-188. And while you're at it, write the Director of Colorado Parks and Wildlife, Rick Cables, and tell him he should be ashamed of himself for selling out the average hunter to line the pockets of landowners and outfitters.

This bill will pass and you will never get those lost tags back if you don't email and call today!

the red portion is the craigslist ad. the below portion is my RANT Beware swearing offensive language below.

You have to be kidding me. So, if us landowners get extra tags we are getting rich? FUCK YOU. its not our fault some city fucks spend all their money on dildos and starbucks coffee. We spend our money on LAND. I have antelope on my property daily. They eat the grass that my cows should be eating. That costs me money in feed. And yet, I dont get to shoot antelope. I have to wait and get 7 years worth of preference points (or whatever it is now). If you want to protest landowner tags. FU Buy, some damn land and shut the fuck up.

This is something some communist piece of shit fuck stain would say. "private individuals and land owners should give us their stuff" because...

That there is some funny stuff.

Just don't bring any high capacity magazines for your safari.

30 round .458 Lott or .416 nitro magazines fetch a premium.

i was going to bring my 700 nitro express double rifle.

I agree with you hbar. What bothers me is seeing out of state guys draw a tag year after year but I don't.

PS I live in the city, buy an occasional Starbucks but defiantly don't buy any dildos.

Overall I give this rant a 8.9/10.

Chillax brah. It's not my fault you spent all your coin on some dirt and a fence.

I have no problem with the Landowner tags, but the outfitters kinda irk me. I get that hunting is big business here in Colorado and guides are no different than anyone else out to make a living., but I do feel that residents should recieve a priority over outfitters/nonresidents. I started late and was not able to get any tags last season, so maybe this is a little bit of a tender subject for me. The only option left for me last season was to pop for a $1500 or more weekend that pretty much just included space in a tent and tags with what passed for a guide service. Just not a feel good moment or situation.

[HBARleatherneck]

i may be wrong (probably) but, i dont think outfitters get special tags. outfitters will partner with private land owners and pay the landowner for those tags. outfitters having a Forest Service or Blm concession still have to have the hunter buy his/her tags over the counter or by draw.

so, your complaint, I believe is misplaced.

i have worked for two guides in the past, and their out of state hunters had to buy their tags over the counter. (the guides both were permitted for public Forest service land)

HBAR,

In the interest of full disclosure, I'll confess that I live in the city and have purchased my fair share of Starbucks. I also enjoy hunting, especially with my sons. My youngest son (12 y.o.) was successful in his first deer hunt this year. We went with the DOW on private land out East of Denver. So my question to you, and it was something I was wondering about during the DOW hunt, is - can you offer the Cliff Notes version of the voucher program in Colorado? What are the benefits to; (a) the landowner, (b) the hunter, (c) anyone else who benefits?

My question is sincere. I am ignorant of the purpose and intent of the program and would like to learn more about it - especially from the perspective of someone with first-hand experience.

The one thing I *think* I learned from your post is that you have a problem with antelope consuming the natural feed that you want your cows eating. As a result, you'd like to see fewer antelope on your property. Increasing the number of vouchers you receive would allow you to do what? In terms of the opposition to increasing the percentage of tags being distributed as vouchers (if I understand that correctly), are they opposed because they feel like this will result in fewer public hunting opportunities?

Sorry for all the questions and I hope you don't mind educating me on this. I really am curious.
