RE: colorado elk hunt
I have a group of buddies that have been twice near or in the S. San Juan Mountains. Everyone has killed a cow everytime, or could have killed several cows but held out for a bull and ended up with nothing. They said if they had muzzleload tags, they could have all had 6 x 6's last time. My buddies dad who was horseback riding and not hunting, has camcorder footage of a 6 x 7 at 30 yards. I was ready to pack and move when I watched it.
