Burning points

[Jmorton1]

7 each Colorado and Wyoming

Not looking for trophies just a good hunt.

What state are you burning first ?

I'd burn Colorado first with their draw system changing in two years. You'll get the most bang for your buck if you apply now and don't wait!

Also, if you're looking at colorado and want to filter/sort the draw odds without scrolling through all the PDFs from CPW, check out tallotags.com. It's basically a colorado specific gohunt that's free to use right now. If you've already got a gohunt subscription you might as well use that, but I can't stomach $150 a year when I basically only hunt Colorado. As an example, here's a screenshot of the third and fourth rifle tags in Colorado that took either 6 or 7 points to draw in 2025 as a resident. Harvest stats for each unit in the tag are also listed.

I would burn Colorado first. Just seems like you can find a giant in any unit there. In my experience Wyoming is a little more difficult to find a big one if thats what youre after.

I agree with the Colorado vote. I’m currently sitting on very few points now in Colorado. I will be trying out the new system when it’s in place it looks like haha. I’m using deer points in another state this year, and growing points in three others. I’m finally getting enough points in enough states for enough animals to hunt somewhere halfway decent each year
