The wait for tags

[def90]

3rd choice for deer - Whitetail only ES archery. Really thought I would get my first choice this year

Which unit? I hunted archery whitetail the last two Seasons down in southeast colo along the Purgatoire River and all I got was the following photo. I do have to say that I was very limited in the amount of time I was able to spend down there though. I saw enough mule deer in the same area that I went for mule deer in the same area this time.

He had a nicely shaped rack though it was more coues deer in size.

My deer charge went away but moose (pp) is still there and now im guessing elk... not sure why this process is so weird.

I just assume they changed their mind and decided to award me a moose tag after all. I'm sure that's it.

I'm seeing a $55 charge on my card for elk (already got the receipt for deer).

New area and new crew this year. Hunting some private/public lands out of friend's cabin near Grandby in GMU 18.

Ohhh, I see the elk charge on my card now as well. I just checked like an hour ago. The moose charge is back as well. Hope I got a second choice to keep a point.

CC got hit with the NR elk tag price. Not yet showing in the CPW account yet, but that?s the only thing that charge could be.

Yeah I'm guessing thats the elk and the date of the charge shows today.. which is the last day before the "2nd draw"...i belive they should give more time next year between the two to let people plan with their hunting partners or what have you, but maybe it was because covid...but i doubt it.

Irving good luck with that moose tag haha. I'm glad i just put in for a PP. I have had a pretty lucky 2020 as far as hunting and draws for hunting.

At this rate, I should have put in for Moose and bought a lottery ticket. For NR to draw deer and elk in the area I’m going is an interesting statistical feat.

You have a month for the secondary draw.

COVID uncertainty probably kept plenty of NR hunters in their own state. Maybe we will see more of them put in for the secondary draw as things have opened up.

The tag is 122, encompasses a lot of units around La Junta area. Have hunted it many years and have yet to come up with anything.

Plenty of mule deer in that area you were probably in from what I have seen in the past.
