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...


i dont think its fair that I cant hunt geese in denver by the zoo. I dont think its fair they wont let me do an "African Safari" hunt at the zoo.

As a 3rd generation landowner who has supported (read fed and provided habitat) wildlife in Co., I have not been able to draw under landowner preference for Antelope or Deer on my property with less than 4 points. I do not always wish to harvest an animal, but as I a, the sole provider on my land, I do wish that I could at least stalk them. We also stand 100% of damage done to crops by this game. We did try the Div of Wildlife damage claim procedure, but it is rendered pretty much useless in Eastern Co.

Personally, I do not believe that I have the right to sell tags.......I understand that is one manner in which to recover some of the costs of damage, I just don't like it any better than outfitters selling licenses.

Do to such opinions as the above, that are more and more prevalent each year, we chose last year to close our 20,000 + acres of land to hunting. In the past, anyone that would ask permission BEFORE they hunted, were granted such. We have thought the years, also allowed a large number of people the chance to use some areas for recreational shooting.

Continued feelings that as landowners we may provide all that is necessary for the survival as well as the betterment of all game, yet we should have a lesser chance for draw under land owner preference than others, will continue to promote a growing feeling of disregard directed to us.


Your choice, and many of you have made it, and sadly, others who still respect the contribution that landowners make, will continue to find areas open for hunting and recreation continue to shrink.


Cuss or discuss at your will, as I have presented my points, and will leave this thread alone.


For those of you who will give this thought without emotion, I Thank You for that.
