Hey whats up fellow outdoorsman!! I have some questions and I was also seeking opinions. I thought this was a great place to come looking. My Brother and I have elk hunted in CO Unit 12 3 times now and we have been successful all 3 times. All 3 have been 2nd season. However we have always hunted that unit with other guys. This year they are not going and we still want to hunt Elk. So we are thinking we maybe should change Units for new scenery. We were talking about going around other people and 2 guys have asked if they could join in the fun. Of course we said yes. Taking 2 guys out to CO that have never hunted Elk and giving them the experience will be amazing.
Nobody has any PPs. We are looking at first season right now in units with good draw odds at 0 pts. Right now (and we know time is running out) we have it narrowed down to a few units. 12, 18, 28 are the 3 that we are strongly considering but not committed 100% yet. Those are just the 3 that stood out using OnX, Gohunt and Google Earth. We have some ranges, drainages, and a few trails marked on my OnX right now for those units. I also got an area of a unit to check from a guy on Rokslide. I am still checking that out. There are some other units that we have looked at and feel ok about also. Its doesn't really matter to us if we get bull or cow tags. Its all about the meat. We are all taking tents so we don't have to stay at hotels. Unless first season this year is anything like last year. Then we might have to break down and use a hotel. We would like to backpack in to get away from the road but if sleeping at the trailhead is a good option we arent opposed to that either. Any suggestions?
I am just looking for your opinions on the units and if you think another unit would be a better option for us. We are coming from PA and we are planning on having a day of scouting before the season. Thanks for reading and Good Luck to you all turkey hunters!!
