Bear Points - Colorado

[benclimbing]

About to burn all my bear points for a September rifle hunt and I've narrowed it down to unit 61 or 66 due to proximity from me and the least amount of tags and other hunters. Which holds better bears, 61 or 66? Any help appreciated!

I checked and they don't show bear ages by unit. I'd likely choose 61 as I have seen some good bears in that unit on several Sept hunts. Bear hunting in Colorado is a lot of fun. Look for water holes in oakbrush country and be patient. Good luck.

Thanks. I took my first bear last year in an adjacent unit that was otc for September and it was loaded with all manner of hunters. Got it done but it was tough. Hoping for a different experience this year...
