Hey All,
Working on an over the counter Elk Archery hunt in Colorado (September 2019). I am an experienced whitetail and antelope hunter from Kansas. I have been doing the usual map research ARC GIS, OnX, and reading. I feel that I have narrowed my regions down, I thought, to southern CO (Weminuche Wilderness Units 75 751 77). At the same time I am wondering if I am wasting my time focusing on the wrong regions or things A couple people have mentioned better elk numbers in the north (flattops, mt zirkel regions) but there seems to be way more hunting pressure. I also get the response "Man that is tough country". Am I missing areas of Colorado that aren't tough hunting?
I just wanted to talk with some people on here about their knowledge or experience with these areas in southern Colorado. If they are able to help me narrow a few things down based on some conversation or steer me in a better direction. Not looking for specific spots just some general questions about herd populations, terrain, burn areas, and pressure from outfitters or people in specific regions. I know many of you do not want to share info on a public forum which I completely understand and agree with. If you would be interested in PM me that is completely OK.
I would be willing to trade Kansas Whitetail information as well as trail cam photos and specific spots for the right trade of info. I am located in one of the best regions in Kansas for public land whitetails with multiple 180" deer being taken on public land within 25 minutes of my house. If not I completely understand just putting out feelers for an honest gentlemens exchange of information. Thank you!
