    When did you hunt? I am having a heck of a time getting into elk. 3 days now without a bugle heard. I am very full of humble pie.

    Has anyone messed around with CHAT GPT? See any application for hunting?

    What is anyone going to do? I am glad I am not any younger though, I would like to go back 30 years for this Sept as I am bow hunting 61.

    What to do with 20 preference points in Colorado

    I have 28 NR points and went down the list until I was virtually guaranteed to draw. I got Unit 61. I have only hunted the oak brush once and was lucky calling in a bull early. That was a long time ago. Not my favorite habitat but I am going to have a great time, barring any misfortune. I am...

    Chasing Points

    DIY. My wife wanted me to hire a guide but I have always done it on my own and for this, what may be my last, greatest hunt, I want to keep at it.

    Applying for MT & CO question

    My bad luck in 2020 I had to turn my tag in for 61. They said the points or the money. Though it hurt, there was no question.

    Chasing Points

    With all I have heard, I am happy to be using 28 NR points to bow hunt 61 this year. I messed up and lost 5 points over the years. Anticipating a great time. Also driving 30+ hours from sea level. Learning a lot about e-scouting.

    Great. I am out of town helping an aging relative so I have been slow to reply. I have 2+ weeks to scout in August. I don't know where I am going to start but hope to make progress in July studying the maps.

    Thanks. Yeah, I am checking them out. Rimrock finally called back and it looks like that is on. Price and convenience are big. Are you up to date on camping areas?

    Looking for a place to rent from Aug 07 to Sept 30. Was planning to stay at the Rimrock in Naturita but it looks like that is not going to work. Any ideas?

    I have never spent time trying to score animals. I am just watching videos and saying shoot or not shoot. I figure my best chance to get my best bull is opening day. Hope to have at least one weekend to glass in the AM before the season. 2 weeks in the PM.

    I agree completely. Any negativity about numbers, size and such is just noise to me. The last time I was in the elk woods was 2005 but even after all that time, I am confident I can find the elk. I do hope to get into a bugle fest before I am done.

    I drew 61 archery elk and bear. The excitement and training kicked up a notch or two today.
