    Default What's Your Personal Tag Fill Stats for Big Game

    As the title states- What percentage of the time do you fill you Big Game Tags and as a side note how many tags have you filled in Colorado?

    I've only been here since 1986- so mine are a little limited to the long timer's here:
    100% Deer- 13
    100% Elk - 15
    100% Pronghorn- 26

    In addition are tags I've helped personally fill as a guide or as an assistant/personal guide- Success Rate 85% in all (some guys are picky- they all had an opportunity)
    Deer 104
    Elk 38
    Pronghorn 216

    I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

    with numbers like that I assume you have kept a journal of sorts every year? I'd have to sit and think long and hard about the numbers of success, and even then I'm sure I'd forget a few along the way. About the only thing I can say for certain is that I'm 100% on antelope with the rifle, not so with the bow. Don't hunt deer in Colo., and certainly not 100% on elk with the rifle, and maybe 30% successful with the bow.

    I'm jealous.

    0% since I took it back up two seasons ago.

    Going to hunt private land this year as well as the usual low harvest area so hopefully a tag will get filled.

    I estimate 33.3% personally when I was a young lad (12-17). Our large camps always had several tags filled so there was always meat. I only hunted Whitetail as a boy.

    First 6 years ZERO. Didn't even see elk most years, maybe one or two. Since 2007 about 50%, bull in 2007, Cows about 3 times since then.
