It is amazing to me that things aren't moving faster in CO when you just look at how centrally located the population in CO is to the huge urban Denver area.Not in Colorado, here it's the average Front Range metro liberal led by the Aspen/Vail socialites...
19/20 of those cities are located in that Denver suburbia and account for a total of 65% of the states population. This number is continuing to grow and with it, the support for anti-hunting.
Discovering this wasn't exactly rocket science. What is more of a challenge is how do we address this market and promote hunting? Last week we had a regional DU meeting here in our state where we looked at what DU in Denver does because its impressive. The amount of money they raise and the attendance they get is fantastic. Not sure how true the number is but it was presented to us that in the Denver metro area, only about 40% of the population supports hunting (which is well below the national norm) and less than 5% of the population actually hunts (this is more on par with the national norm but actually high given its an urban area). So how do these events draw such support?
