CO draw results

[TOGIE]

Some weird stuff happened. I drew my late cow tag w/ 0 pts at what was 7% or so odds last year, my buddy drew a 3rd season buck tag as a second choice in a unit that has drawn out in entirety at 1st choice for at least three years in a row (i told him not to bother with second choice on that, i guess good thing he didn't listen), and I didn't draw a second choice doe antelope tag in a unit that went leftover last year. I briefly checked quota changes and I don't recall ever seeing anything in these areas that would explain this, and increased apps only explain one of these oddities.

Gosh. Why do I waste my time thinking about these things.

I heard that as well, but I'm not convinced it's accurate. At the April commission meeting it was stated that in round numbers, 2018 applications totaled 698K and 2019 applications totaled 590K. For those interested, 2017 was about 550K.

Please, please keep us updated as to what your hear. I'm at work and can't listen. I also know you and Wllm have learned how to translate the CPW dialect!
Maybe a real quick highlights in the state specific section?

Edit - I think I found the link. Jumped the gun a little bit

Archery Plains deer for me and I'll be headed to 21 for my daughter.

@JoltnJoe I'm listening live CPAW meeting now, they just mentioned that apps were up this year from last even with the requisite license purchase.

Not sure where they got this info. All the draw stats are posted and deer, elk and moose apps all decreased by 20,000. Sheep and goat decreased by 10,000+.

I drew a tag on a second choice that was 4.3 percent in the second choice last year

Question: did a lot of NR put in for the discounted concurrent fall bear tag?

 

[belshawelk]

I am shocked I didn't draw a desert bighorn. Obviously rigged.

Woof the whole no upfront fee + no prefpoint for desert sheep tanked those odds...apps were still up 200% from 2017

I drew first rifle, either sex Elk, GMU6, Which also allows me to hunt 16, 17, 161, and 171.

Has anyone been up that way for first season rifle?

I don’t know if this has been brought up or not yet, but the draw recap reports are out for 2019. Also, I too am not very patient and haven’t received my tag yet.

I know I posted earlier about being impatient, but I think today was the payment deadline, so I’m sure as long as they have your money for sure now they’ll send them next week...hopefully
