[QUOTE="rsbhunter, post: 1608012, member: 5850"] There is no easy answer......are you willing and or physically able to climb mountains, up and down, camp with equipment you already own, spend whatever it takes to get there, license's, food, etc. AND then there's still a greater chance of not getting one than getting one.....unless you have the time, there will be very little time for scouting , and then, there's the chance you will get there and you will feel like you're in a Wal-Mart parking lot.....I live in New Mexico, have applied for elk,deer and Antelope for 20 years.....I'm older, and hunt on my own, so my effort is dependent on my physical ability.I've drawn twice for antelope, approx. 6 times for elk, maybe 8 for deer....NOT promoting Colorado, but you can get a tag over the counter, and other states might be comparable, don't know. But I will state that this sport is becoming " the sport of kings". And the land owners see this as a cash cow also, some private land tags go from $1000- $5000.....for elk and longhorns.
