Does anyone here bow hunt during the Colorado rifle seasons?
I've never archery hunted 3rd season. I have archery hunted other places during the same time frame.

It's hard. It really seems like if the buck is solo they are moving a lot searching and hard to catch up to. If they aren't moving a lot they are with lots of other deer and there are tons of eyes .

I actually think it would be easier second season when they aren't chasing as hard.

It all depends on the unit you’re in. Zero-low point units you’re gonna get frustrated. You’re gonna work pretty hard to find a shooter buck let alone get within archery range. Top tier units I have been within easy archery range of some quality bucks during 3rd-4th from the front seat of my truck.
