RE: Colorado OC Elk Tags are Out
Yep, I picked up one also!CDOW started out with over 500 left over tags in my area and they were below 250 when I got mine in the afternoon of the first day. I figure they'll all be gone by Friday. Thems that snooze is thems that lose.
Now I've got one either sex tag (first draw), plus one cow tag (leftover "draw"). I plan to pop the first reasonable size legal elk I see, I assume a cow, then hold out a bit into the first day for a bull, then if no luck by late afternoon, pop another cow.. In our area, for reasons I can't explain, we see the bulls between 2 and4:00 PM. With several of us with two tags it sure does eliminate the "party hunting" trap. As long as we get a fair haul, we don't mind discarding unused tags.
Can't wait until October 11th.... I always enjoy being the first to shoot at them (with high power). They sure do wise up fast. We don't care for the deer.
