Colorado moose results are up: I didn't draw again. Don't get to try the Omega out on Moose.

Anybody else get lucky?

I posted this originally in the Lounge because , IMHO, I don't think Moose or Elk should be grouped with 'Exotics' such as pigs et al.

Just my Opinion,

BeanMan-----no luck here either. I've got 3 points & NOW 5 weighted points. Which unit did you apply for? Unit 76 fro me. I see you over at MM all the times. Looks like we'll just have to hunt up a 350 class wapiti !! grin.gif

Colorado Bob,

I applied for 171, Swampy Pass, Blackpowder. I've got 3 points and 2 weighted, I hope I draw in this lifetime. I went to Fort Lewis College for a year in 1979 before transfering to CSU. Loved Durango. I drove through it a few weeks ago and was shocked by the growth.

Oh well, I should draw a blackpowder bull this year, maybe a Pronghorn, and most likely a Uncompahgre deer tag.

Yup, I'm a Monster Muley regular.

Cheers,

BeanMan

Only I'll draw is an either sex elk tag. I've got 7 points for antelope but unit 2 was hit hard by the drought & they have cut back on the tags for that unit-----I may never draw it. Same with elk in that unit. I should draw a high country buck tag in 74 next year.

How does the peach crop look?? Any frost ?

Yep----Durango has been found & the Californians are moving here in droves!! frown.gif

Bob,

We have a 100% peach crop so far. We probably lost most of the apricots and some of the sweet cherry's to frost. Apples are 100% too. My Wife drew a unit 2 antelope two years ago. We only saw about 10 goats in two days of hunting before she settled for a smaller buck. Probably didn't help that the BLM decided to hold a Feral horse roundup the week before season and used a helicopter to round them up. It scared just about every goat out up to Wyoming.

I've shot a couple good goats out of 2 in past years. How many points did your wife have? Shame to wait that many years & then only see 10. Did you hunt along the Little Snake? that's where I camp & hunt that end of it.

Bob,

She had 8 points. We were camped quite near the Little Snake River. I think it will take more now as the herd recovers from the drought period.
