In Colorado? It has been so warm, I wonder if they even begin to start winterizing? Does anyone know?

You'll find some good ones now. However, I don't start till mid-november.....

By far it's best around here from early November till about the 3rd week of Jan.

Dober

ditto that here... the fur buyer, groenwald's, gets awful choosy after the 2nd week of january...

Out here they are full & thick/heavy/pretty prime IMO already, much more so than last year at this time. Makes me wonder if its going to be bad this winter!

couple that, with a late elk rut and you may be onto sumthin'.....

Roger that gents, thank you. I will take my 223 and caller along on my elk hunt next week, may be a good way to spend a restful evening
