    Elk .... Let's see them!!!

    CO OTC 3rd rifle season. Went to the wire as I got this guy in the last 15 min of shooting light on the last day of the season! First elk on first elk hunt. Can’t wait for next year!

    Colorado late season bear

    Thanks for that info. My buddies and I are just weighing out the cost vs opportunity. Being that this is an elk hunt, we won't be actively hunting for bear. I guess worst case we can chalk it up as another donation to a state's fish and wildlife department!

    Colorado late season bear

    Thanks for that! I think it's $100, so it probably will get added on.

    Colorado late season bear

    Are bears still out and about in the beginning of November (specifically southwest part of the state). Hunting 3rd rifle elk and was curious if it’s worth adding the tag on. Thanks in advance

    Draw Plans

    I definitely knew about the loyalty point. The youth hunts I hadn’t really looked into (but should have). Thanks for that info.

    Draw Plans

    Thanks for the tips on adding another state or two. New Mexico is definitely close, but the odds had them lower ranking than other states for me.

    Draw Plans

    Rookie western hunter here, and to make things even more difficult, I’m a late bloomer (42). Have my first elk hunt in 3rd rifle Colorado this year. Last year I only hunted my home state but bought a point in Wyoming for elk and deer for my son and myself. I also am planning on Arizona OTC...

    How's 6.5 PRC

    Interesting. I'll have to check that out. Thanks!

    How's 6.5 PRC

    Where did you see the Army starting to use 6.5 PRC? SOCOM has been using the 6.5 creed for a while, but I was not aware of anyone even testing the 6.5 PRC. I do know that 300 PRC has been in testing for quite a while and I believe they are now field testing it with the new weapon system...

    Starting out- advice welcome

    Thanks for the input. All it really does is lessens the sting of paying for the license before the draw without getting something for it (other than a kind donation...).

    Starting out- advice welcome

    Arizona is intriguing with its OTC archery deer tags. Am I correct in interpreting that I could OTC archery deer hunt in January and buy my license then, which would allow me to put in for the draw for fall of the same year? Otherwise I would have to buy a license at the time of the draw...

    What are your 2020 plans?

    Colorado 2nd rifle season elk (might try secondary draw for mule deer) Texas mule deer (public land no draw as well as putting in for the draw tags)

    Will market volatility and or heath concerns with the virus influence your western hunting plans

    This was going to be my first year in the application game. Had to change plans due to the already significant economic impact on my business. Now I’m looking at OTC only to be conservative. COVID-19 is not my primary concern at this point.

    Appreciate it!

    New from TX

    Lucked into a mil buddy that has a connection for a large piece of private property. Going to go OTC. If that doesn't pan out, then it will be OTC DIY public land. Either way, I'm getting up there!
