I have seen an equal amount of really big mulies in Wyoming and Colorado on both Public and Private land. It's the time spent researching, scouting and area and then hunting it that will reward you.


"Just Draw"
All that reasearch and scouting is for naught if you can't draw the tag.
1-2% draw odds real common in the hottest units in the west unless you spend the $$$$ for landowner tags.
My buddy has been buying LO tags in Colorado for the last few years and if I recall he pays about $4500 to $5000 for the tag alone.
