Learned this after a meeting with Colorado Parks and Wildlife. The Southern Ute Indian Tribe Refuses to modify their hunting regulations and limits. The the deer and elk herds winter on the reservation hence the results. Each tribe member can take 7 animals per their regs. They can also hunt US Forest service lands off the reservation. For the website containing these regs:
