I go to CO. every year for something, Granted you have to pay up front but if you don't draw, you get your money back. Its getting to be quite hard to draw a tag there. Being 67 I have to take what I get. ML bull elk used to take 0 points now its 3 and by the time I draw (went last year) will be over 5 points. So this year its either archery or second season rifle (and thats very crowded). Physical limitations are a concern for archery.
I was very fortunate to hunt a lot of prime area's there when points were way down. I went to unit 61 with 0nly 2 points now its about 15 or so. lots of folks appling.
