I drew a Colorado Ranching for Wildlife Blue Sage Cow tag and an area 3 Pronghorn Buck tag. I will use the 257 Wby for the Pronghorn and a 264 Win. Mag for the Cow. Happy Days are here again.

Point for Elk/Deer.
Drew 4th season bull tag which enables me to still get an OTC antlerless archery tag!

1st season cow tag and 3rd season mule deer tag
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Only 1 of our group of 4 drew for deer in area 301. Pretty disappointed.

Rebelman, Area 3 is where all the big bucks hang out. If that would have been your area of choice, I would have directed you to them. That is where my wife and I always apply for as first choice.

Unit 61 Rifle for me. About time I get rid of those 19 points.

BigFin,

Not first rifle, the schedule only allowed for 3rd rifle. Last year it would have been a slam dunk with 17 points. This year, I barely got in with 19 points. I had considered archery and muzzy, but I would have been one and two points short this year, so maybe it is good that other states have me occupied during September/October. Our Raghorn Express will be headed to the Uncompahgre, come November.

Looks like I'll be hunting with a OTC bull tag and a second choice Unit 12/23/24 cow tag this year. Got a pref point first choice so now have 2 for elk.
Got a pref point for deer instead of a tag so now 2 for deer as well.
Haven't checked with them but expect the other three hunters in my group this year (Daughter #1 and two sons-in-law) also got their first choice pref point for elk and second choice cow tag for Unit 12/23/24.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.

You will enjoy Third season. I hunted second season two years ago and shot a nice bull. It's not too far from where I live. BigFin,

Smokepole, hunting a bear in 61? Yep, nice photo, I saw a couple bruisers up there when I hunted it a few years ago. Any and all tips are welcomed. What elevation were you seeing them at in October?

First rifle hunt in 23--either sex. Good time to be in the mountains of Colorado!

Had a 10/12 chance for rifle deer with 3 points. I was one of the 2.....
Congrats to those who drew.
