CO group app

Quick question for the CO draw experts. Can youth apply with a group of adults? My son is dying to go west with us. He’s 14 with no points. We are going for NR ML cow tags.

There’s nothing prohibiting your son from applying with you, but you’ll all have zero points in the draw if he has none and is a part of your party. Probably best to read this blurb on group apps before applying…

Big Game

Hunting for big game in Colorado can be a thrilling and challenging experience, with the chance to explore some of the most beautiful wilderness areas in the country. However, it's important to follow all hunting regulations and safety guidelines to ensure a safe and sustainable hunt.

There’s a very good chance that your son would have better odds applying for that license as an individual with youth preference. As pointed out, your whole group will have zero points in the draw if he’s on the group app, and he will have no youth preference.

Thanks everyone. This is a year where if we can’t all draw we will probably plan something else. Just wasn’t sure if he could be on app with us. Thanks again.

Keep in mind that if your youth draws on his app and the group app does not, pretty easy/cheap to return the youth tag for a refund and reboot a different hunt for all.

Or take your son hunting as the sole tag holder and spend a week concentrating on him and his tag. Quite a memory that would make
