Colorado B.S. Thread

Says the man who drives a 2nd gen.

 

I'm from back east, White tails is all i know. It seems like everyone here in the west is all about the mule for sure though. I just want the meat so i'm not picky

 

Yeah so if any of you TW peeps need to get ahold of me PM me or FB messenger me for the next couple of days. This old man dropped his phone tonight and broke the screen.

Have to get a new phone here in the next couple days.

 

I thought those Jitterbug's were bullet proof?

 

Just get both tags mule and elk, and hunt them the same trip.

 

Hahaha. S3 has been great for the past 2 years. Just gonna get an S5 this week.

 

that's what i was looking at doing. I'm just looking at the costs and stuff for it. Montana is almost 1k for a combo tag non-resident i think colorado is a bit cheaper, just not sure the draw success rate.

 

If you get yourself an elk, preferably a nice fat cow that was laying down when you shot her, you'll quickly become picky.

Elk = awesome steak
Deer = jerky and sausage and stuff

 

if it works like that, i'll be more then happy. I do plan on cow tags though, so that might help my chances.

 

Ya no problem. Josh is a great person to work with. If you don't make it up there before the reroute Josh told me I could come back and switch out my skid for the other one.

 

yet we'll see which generation out lasts the other

 

It's a Toyota they will last forever!

 

this vvvvvv

lol^

 

I'm taking your +1 away you ungrateful bastard.

 

I've been successful with OTC tags. Draw is going to be tough to get in the high populated areas for someone entering it the first year. Best advice I can give you is look online for the "trophy areas" and find the areas with OTC tags next to them.

 

No OTC cow tags so you gotta get into the draw. (To my knowledge for non residents, get on the computer in July and see your luck.) I don't know the non resident rules because I'm a resident.


I stand corrected I think you can still get cow or either sex as a non resident. Like I said I'd call and get better info from the state.

i've been looking at the reg's for all three states, and I find the colorado ones the most confusing. Do they offer elk or deer OTC for non residents? From what I read the season is considerably shorter then montana's which would make the drive almost worth it. I was looking at 80-81 in colorado though. I did some fishing in Kerr Lake and it seemed like a good area.

 

There are OTC tags available for out of state people in all GMU's expect like 36 fo of them for archery (the rifle reads weird to me Id call fish and game to be sure on rifle) which is a small amount. If have to look up and tell you which ones they are. Id also have to look up to see the area and topo of 80-81 as I've never hunted in that GMU. Which season you coming out?

 

If I decide on Colorado, probably 3-4th season (oct31-nov8 or nov11-nov15)

 

Yeah I normaly go 3rd season. I like the snow on the ground.
