... on sale online at midnight August 3/ The list of licenses available goes online July 27th (this coming Wednesday).
Have a cow tag from the drawing but haven't decided if I'll buy a leftover cow tag or get an OTC bull tag for my second license.

Hi Coyote_Hunter,
Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it. As it is, I have one general season deer tag in a very good unit of Utah. I'd like another trip on line if it's worth while. So I'm gonna check Colorado leftover bull tags. But I'm sure I'm not gonna find a rut hunt.
It doesn't get much more exciting than rut huntin' bull elk.
Huntin' huge bull elk is like catching huge tuna: one ain't enough.

OTC w/cap and all OTC licenses went on sale today at 9 am.
We got our two OTC w/cap bull tags in the only unit that has them.
Lot of bear tags though.
Now I have a cow elk ML tag for Sept and a bull elk tag for Oct 22

Just got off the phone with the CPW... they're having "server issues" they hope to have the list up today, but it may take a couple days to fix the issue.
You better pray to the God of Skinny Punks that this wind doesn't pick up......

This the same outfit that had its servers go down for hours two years ago when they decided it was a great idea to sell all the leftovers at 9am?
The same outfit that sent me my elk tag a month late this year?
The same outfit that didn't get the memo that the leftovers list is supposed to be released today July 27th? Must of just snuck up on them ninja like.

You'll want to be in line at a small store, well before 9am, likely well before opening too. Might even test them out the night before to make sure they know how to quickly sell a license. There is going to be a mad rush on some of these quality licenses that were returned that take 5-10 points each to draw. Lots of people are going to get their hopes up now that they have seen the list, only to be disappointed. On the other hand, some people are going to score a great license for no points.
I'm glad these quality licenses are being resold, but I think logistically it is going to cause problems with customer satisfaction for those that don't get what they want, claiming it was rigged or the machines go down again. Or god forbid, only some machines go down.

Someone turned in a 61 archery bull tag. That is surprising. Don't have the patience to wait in line but good luck to whoever is going for that. Takes 12 points or so typically.

There are some GREAT tags available for all animals. Really happy that they put returned licenses back into the public draw this year and from here on out. Always seemed such a waste to have some of these very limited tags returned and lost to the wind.

Standing in line and I was 4th. First two guys were in and out in 4 minutes flat. Third guy has his daughters info written down and they have to manually enter everything. The clerk is good, but the first code was sold out. He had 5 codes written down and they have been manually entering her info over and over, getting sold out codes. All the while I'm sitting behind him waiting and waiting and waiting. They've been at it 15 minutes. Now he's taking the time to look up other codes on his phone. I'm gonna kill him...

Same thing going on here as well some guy with a crew of family members [bleep]! I'm only interested in two tags
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.
