One thing i am kind of worried about in my colorado hunt ends the Sept. 20th and then my New mexico hunt starts Sept 24th LOL. I get a nice 2 day break after a 9 day Coloado hunt and then go straight to a 5 day hunt. AND THEN maybe an over the counter bull elk hunt in oct-nov area. Good thing i will have 2 guns and one of them scoped for new mexico. Makes things easier and ready to go.
