Not new to hunting, just here to learn new info for a planned 2020 Colorado hunt. Heart bypass surgery this year finally motivated me to get off my butt and go on a western hunt I have always talked about and never followed through. Been working on Rehab and fitness, hoping to learn all I can

Welcome. SE of ya, over by Effingham.
Please make sure your doctor clears you for a mountain hunt.
Any particular unit you’re looking at? Rifle, muzzy or archery hunt. The more details you give, the better the help you’ll get.

Welcome to the forum. I'm from Illinois too. Don't be shy about sharing your hunting stories or expertise. This is a pretty diverse place and it is not just about elk hunting in western states. You'll find most forum members are willing to share knowledge with other members they have seen contributing in other areas.
