[ QUOTE ] OK the pest is back with another question.... What kind of jacket should I have with me in Colorado in MID. October ?? Extreme Cold Weather or Light Weight ??

  10. Re: HEAD-COUNT (THE GREAT CO. ELK HUNT) Ill help with rides as best I can, I work near Denver airport and live 35min from Springs airport( the best). [ QUOTE ] as far as camp goes, there will be some free tent space. bring out a sleeping bag & roll it out. food can be had for shared cost. i'll get an actual count of mouths to feed and get the groceries, and we'll all split the cost. rides from the airport are available at gas cost only, which may be 50.00 round trip. or, as things get closer, we'll post airport pickup times and share rides. we'll all just work together on this.

  13. Re: Working out for elk A new job in Denver.
  14. Re: THE GREAT COLORADO ELK HUNT Unlimited only refers to the QUANTITY of licenses for a specific unit. An OTC unlim bull elk tag is for a specific unit only, like unit 55. Except there are OTC unlimited STATEWIDE archery elk tags and unlimited statewide turkey tags and some others similar. I know this is confusing but when you read the lead in pages for each species you need to read 'every word' to understand what it is you are buying or applying for. EMail me if I can help, or better yet email the DOW, their answers will be correct and official. I wont steer you wrong, but sometimes I misunderstand too and I am a resident. http://wildlife.state.co.us/About/askdow/ They usually answer in a few days. Good luck guys.
  15. Re: THE GREAT COLORADO ELK HUNT Not sure if you guys read this, but if you get rifle elk tags any method of kill is legal. Except ML under 40cal. So if you get rifle elk, you can use rifle, bow, Ml over 40 cal, or crossbow. It's in your book.
  16. Re: HEAD-COUNT (THE GREAT CO. ELK HUNT) Oh I forgot, my wife and oldest dau will be along also for all or most of the time. They will both be elk hunting.
  17. Re: what are you applying for????? CO elk mulies antilope bear trout
  18. Re: HEAD-COUNT (THE GREAT CO. ELK HUNT) Ill be there for sure. I clicked the button above but not sure what that does.
  19. Re: THE GREAT COLORADO ELK HUNT The use what they call a CID number now same as CC but no long green card. Either number works. You need one or the other to get a tag, and you can get the CID number online
  20. Re: THE GREAT COLORADO ELK HUNT The CC ticket system is over and done. You will get an individual blue tri-fold tag/license for each species you buy a tag for. The long green CC tickets went out the window when the DOW went totally online. ALTHO some people still have them and do use the old CC numbers. We have them, the wife and I, and we use them but only to apply or to refewrnce in our emails to the DOW. Others do not get them and use their cyurrent DL or SS number, I think.
  21. Re: THE GREAT COLORADO ELK HUNT Why in ythe world would a person want to stand in line to buy OTC tags when you can get them online??? Huntign season is short enough in CO without spending the preseason standing in line. I have stood in line, for two hours, wife has stood in line for three hours and still didnt get to head of the line. No we do it online, no waiting. The requirements are the same.
  22. Re: 2006 State Hunting Application Info FOR COOLERADO: http://wildlife.state.co.us/ShopDOW/AppsAndLicenses/
  23. Re: THE GREAT COLORADO ELK HUNT Something else I thought of, for you all who will be buying or applying for your tags online: HAVE ALL YOUR INFO IN FRONT OF YOU "BEFORE" YOU BEGIN. The online apply does 'time out' and if you goof around looking stuff up to fill in the blanks then you'll have to start over...allthe way over. Make sure ythat you have your four choices selected ahead of time too as theres not time to be looking stuff up and thinkin bout waht you wanna do for tags and draws once you start the application process. In 2003 I timed out twice and it took me two hours just to apply for one set of tags. Tjhe second set took 15min cause I had it all figgered out by then. And dont forget your hunter safety info. If you don't have a recod of it your state DOW or DNR surely does. Or retake the course, yalls might learn somethin. Good luck. Lemme know how I can help.
  24. Re: Colorado Elk? Try 45, or 37/371, or 55.
