    Fenix headlamp?

    I’ve had a Fenix headlamp for about a year and a half. It works great. No issues with it.

    Draw Process Working Group Recommendations

    Here is a link to a memo summarizing the recommendations from the draw process working group. https://cpw.state.co.us/Documents/Commission/2024/July/Item.23_Commission_Memo_Draw_Working_Group_4.pdf I may be misinterpreting the summary, but it seems to me the DPWG is recommending all deer, elk...

    CO CPW Draw Process Working Group

    Muzzy and archery seasons stayed the same. Rifle seasons west of I-25 will now be: 1st rifle will start 3 days earlier on a Wednesday and end on Sunday, followed by a 5 day break, then 9 day second rifle season, then 5 day break, then a 9 day third season then, 2 day break then 5 day forth...

    Colorado OTC archery

    Limited means there will be a set number of NR archery tags for units that are currently OTC for NRs. It doesn't mean there will be vastly fewer NRs hunting those units. If CPW actually does what they said they would (MIGHT) do in there initial preferred alternative, which was to address...

    CO CPW Draw Process Working Group

    The recommendation to go OIL if you shoot a ram or goat specifically excludes auction and raffle tags, so there is still a carrot for folks that only GAF if they have a chance to shoot another one. I agree that going OIL for draw tags won’t increase the odds much, but the other recommendation...

    CBA is asking for your help

    I’m not opposed to this change but I don’t think it will really have much effect on point creep. Particularly on the NR side, the system is so overloaded with applicants that only a drastic change is going to do anything to reduce point creep. Point systems cause point creep. Capping NR tags...

    CBA is asking for your help

    Going limited for elk doesn’t eliminate the possibility of getting a point and a list A tag in the same year. Most years I do this with deer. Two separate issues.

    CBA is asking for your help

    Why? So you can just buy one of the 40,000 transferable landowner tag that will be created instead of waiting in line with the proles?

    CBA is asking for your help

    Are you really so clueless that you believe this only occurs with archery?

    CBA is asking for your help

    I understand that. The act also specifies increasing big game population and increasing access to private land, neither of which seem to be going very well. Anyhow, my point was simply that there is no financial justification to suggest that reducing NR elk tag sales would require a commensurate...

    CBA is asking for your help

    This is just not true @elkduds. Since the future generations act, CPW has had annual budget surplus in excess of $10,000,000 per year. Two years ago the surplus was nearly $30,000,000 which means they could reduce NR elk tags by 50% or 35,000 tags and still be operating in the black. Last year...

    10-11 Jan 2024 CPW Commission Meeting

    Anyone that believes the change to limit hunters numbers in 2nd and 3rd seasons in the NW units is going to result in better hunting on public land in those units really needs to pull their head out of their ass. This was just more CPW sponsored outfitter welfare. This change will not force...

    CO CPW Draw Process Working Group

    @Oak @Sandbrew Any chance you two can convince CPW to add another table to the draw stats for each MSG that breaks out draw odds by sex instead of lumping ram and ewe tags into the same summary table. It seems to me a lot of the bitching about the current system is due to the misconception that...

    CO CPW Draw Process Working Group

    • Make ram and mtn goat tags similar to bull moose in that if you fill your tag, you can never apply again and add waiting period of 5-10 years if you draw but don’t fill the tag • Add a 5-10 year waiting period to apply for cow moose and ewe sheep if you fill your tag • Leave the MSG weighted...

    Despite CPW recommending against moving forward with point banking, the CPW commission will again discuss point banking next week, seeming due to one commissioner. See info below about alternatives developed by CPW...
