[QUOTE="elkstalker300, post: 168457, member: 3128"] [b]Co Diy[/b] I have lived and hunted elk in Co all my life and never went any where else, never had to. About hunting here the biggest question is when and how do you want to hunt. Our seasons start in Aug for archery, Sept for muzzleloader, Oct starts the rifle seasons which you need to know how you want to hunt, nice weather pick the first or second season, snows usually start in mid Oct and the third season you can hunt the elk moving down from the high country but be prepared for cold and lots of snow. 4th season is usually really cold and now is a draw only tag. Also the first season is a draw only either sex tag. As for O.T.C cow tags you can only buy them as left over tags but they arent really hard to draw anyway. Co also has pref. points so by the second year you will usually draw your tag unless you are hunting in a trophy area. I myself usually hunt the 3rd season in southwest co by the town of Cortez. This year I hunted muzzleloader and had a blast and killed a 350 bull which had a forh point broke off that would have put him in B&C if it had been there (to see pics of him go to ww w hunt101.com go to elk then look for elkstalker3oo) anyway there seem to be alot bigger bulls killed each year on public land and the hunting seems to be holding its own but I have never been any where else Out of state costs 250 for a cow tag and 495 for a bull I think, they also have a youth tag that runs 100 dollars out of state bull or cow which is a hell of a deal.
