Been browsing for a while, and just decided to join. I have lived in Utah my whole life but I just moved to Western Colorado. I hunted a bit when I was younger but it became an occasional thing, when I got into school. Then life got busy with family and career, kept it that way. I have always loved hunting and would often think about jumping all the way back in. I drew a Utah elk tag a fey years ago and now I am hooked again. My kids are now excited about getting into hunting and my two oldest daughters are taking the internet conclusion course, for their hunter's safety, tomorrow. Some of my best memories, as a kid, are from our family hunting trips. I can't wait! I am more excited to take them out then I have ever been for a hunt for myself.

That's cool that you are getting the family involved this time around. Those are the greatest times. Welcome to the Forum.

Welcome. Lots of great folks in here with "interesting" opinions Lookig forward to hearing what you getup to. If you are now a CO resident I would recommend checking into the Ranching For Wildlife program. You can get into some good high draw/ high success big game in you are looking for meat (ie cows and does) and is a less intense way to start the kids. I am trying to get both a cow and doe prongy this year to refill the freezer

I really enjoy your show! That is why I joined this site. Thanks for making a show that shows hunts us regular guys can actually do and for showing what it is really like.

Looks like Pinon West Mesa and Kessler Canyon are the closest. Both drew for cows last year at 0-1 pt depending on the hunt chosen and have about 60% success rates listed for cows. Hope that helps Here is the link to the CPW page .....http://cpw.state.co.us/thingstodo/Pages/RFWParticipating.aspx

LOL.. And just to burst your bubble I had your location listed as a van down by the river before you did!! But I changed it since then,

Good luck. Easy to find good hunting within a decent distance of Junction.

Why don't you just shut your big yapper!

I really did have it all planned out ahead. By the way "your not going to amount to jack squat."
That's enough motivational speaking for one day.
