I have a deer tag, an antelope tag and by the looks of it a RFW cow moose tag.Elk are not shown yet,only the app. If God wanted you to walk and carry things on your back, He would not have invented stirrups and pack saddles

Antelope season is usually only a one day affair anyway. You can probably work around that due date some.

Fill out the questions like you are going to buy a tag. When all your info comes up, select "Big Game and Turkey Licenses and Applications". Next Page is a "Submit" button. Select that Then a page comes up that shows all the big game tags, go down right below it and select the "Buy Habitat Stamp and other licenses". A page will come up showing all you applied for and all that you received tags for. I think it says "Products you have on file". Example, there will be a 4XX code that says deer app and then 5XX code that says deer. I think if you see a 5XX code, you drew that tag. Mine shows: 2015 - 490 RES DEER APP 2015 - 462 RES PRONGHORN APP 2015 - 562 RES PRONGHORN 2015 - 575 RES MOOSE 2015 - 018 EXTRA ROD STAMP 2015 - 475 RES MOOSE APP 2015 - 480 RES ELK APP 2015 - 590 RES DEER 2015 - 030 RES SR FISHING-ANNUAL 2015 - 013 RES SMALL GAME-ANNUAL Elk are not posted yet and I can't tell if you got 1st or 2nd choice.

I now have 3+13 points for mountain goats. So all my Colorado eggs are in the elk basket. Fortunately I have an out-of-state hunt planned this year.

However I drew deer and pronghorn tags last year, and should draw elk this year as I burned all 9PP on a unit that only took 6PP to draw last year. The sad thing is my daughter just turned 12 in Jan and is dying to hunt Colorado and she is all 4XX for deer, pronghorn, and bear as well. She'll get to hunt pronghorn at least on one of her Grandpa's landowner vouchers, and hopefully she'll draw that cow elk tag I put her in for. Bear for both of us was just a PP this year as she wants one, so this was the first year we applied. Last edited by taylorce1; 05/22/15. Reason: SS beat me to it!

Already I had to let a bunch of goat and sheep tags go. The only reason that I pursued this was that they guide you and get your moose out for you. I will probably pick up a new electric chain saw and use olive oil in it to cut the darn thing up.I got a little 800 watt generator that will run it.

I've been elk hunting around the ranch for the past few years and the moose are thick in there. Last year, during second season, the moose were herded up into one large herd over 20 animals. Two big bulls, many smaller "Bullwinkles" and cows. We kept running into them everyday. Opening day my step son and I were bluff charged and it was hilarious running through the trees half laughing, half in terror and then watching him blow past me like I was standing still. On my last day hunting, the big girl with a calf charged me when I surprised all of them on the ranch fenceline. With my back against the fence and no where to go, she charged around her calf - thankfully she stopped at about 15 feet and I didn't have to poke her 'tween the eyes. That encounter left me shaken up pretty good. Never seen moose herd up into more than 5 or 6 animals. The ranch manager Dave is a pretty good guy and the ranch properties are easy to hunt. You should fill your tag and have a good time. Congrats and good luck to ya!

Maybe that luck can produce a multi animal year in 2015. Its been a while for me, freezer #2 clean out starts this week and worst case saves a little energy, best case it goes back on full in November.

I'm more excited about this than I was when I got that 201 elk tag after 20 years applying. This only took 15. Congrats on your moose tag! It's something special to be able to hunt a moose in your home state. Got mine 6 years ago, with a good friend along to help skin, quarter, and pack out. We used the disarticulation method of field dressing- skin, remove quarters, neck meat, backstraps, etc., and leave the carcass and guts intact. Works especially well on moose, and only a couple of sharp knives are needed. Result is very clean meat, which cools out quickly. Another tip- if you are in reasonable distance from a vehicle, a cheap plastic kid's sled for snaking out quarters works very well. Since you are hunting a RFW area, you may not need to worry about much of the stuff after the kill. Good luck!!!! I'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave....

His should be a youth EE or cow tag in 15 1R, and mine should be an EE Tag for 15 1R as well. The deer tags will be 2R, and he can trade in his youth tag for a cow tag for 2R and hopefully I can pick up a leftover cow tag for 2R. Anyone know when these mail?

My bet is another good year for grouse offering an excuse to scout when their season opens. I really hope to run up for for an early/mid summer trip, pack rod and fry pan kind of trip.
