    Colorado - 5-year Big Game Season Structure

    The CBA early deer seasons proposal is to have only the archery deer season west of I25 mirror the dates of pronghorn. In 2018, that was Aug 15-Sept 20th. It could alleviate some pressure during the archery elk season, create a premo archery deer hunt, and lower the conflict complaints we get...

    Archery OTC Units

    There is a proposal up for action to change units 44, 45, 47 & 444 to bull only for 2019. It might go limited too. The elk herd in those units are reported to be under objective so take that into consideration.

    Future of Elk in Southwest Colorado in Jeopardy?

    Well, to answer your question, most of the time the commission adopts staff preferred alternatives. That said, being there frequently matters. On e-16, I have gotten call backs from 7 commissioners. Not sure, but having a personal relationship does matter and they do listen. Ask me after the...

    Colorado application and preference point fees, etc.

    When you don't draw, guess you ended up with zero chance. Look where this is headed. Look at what happened in Wyoming. Points went from 7 bucks to where they are now. Go apply for 8 big game species at $10 each, then pay for your points that in a few short years are maxed out at $100 bucks...

    Colorado application and preference point fees, etc.

    Who said mail would be required? They have a cell canter, you can pay by check. I do it all the time. Who said you can't do it on your phone. Who said residents can't pay with a credit card? The problem is refunds was moose sheep and goat. Saw a slide on Wednesday that said they were losing...

    Colorado application and preference point fees, etc.

    In reading this post in entirety, with all due respect you guys who are happy with pay later are insane. Your not recruiting hunters, your just adding applicants. Your a hunter when you get a license and hit the field. We just sold a 500% increase to nonresidents for moose that will never draw...

    Colorado application and preference point fees, etc.

    What is hunter recruitment and retention? I can find no evidence in real data of needing it. 15 years go we had 229,000 elk hunters and we have 226,000 today. What I do find more critical is hunter relevancy. USFWS in 2011 showed 30% of Montana's hunt and fish. Colorado was 15% We lost our ass...

    wildlife commission about to change resident license allocation for the worse?

    Your profile says your from Fort Collins. Everyone is a non resident somewhere. I have something like 17 points just to hunt a deer in Utah. I apply in Wyoming, and Montana too. I have drawn several elk in tags in Wyoming, and MT. If I ever draw there again, I'd skip CO in a heartbeat. We have...

    wildlife commission about to change resident license allocation for the worse?

    Yea, I never understand the property tax argument. When land is zoned agricultural, the taxes aren't diddly squat. I own 545 acres in Larimer county. My property taxes with FA zoning are literally $120 a year. I wanted to speak up and say what are you talking about! but sometimes it pays to just...
