Couple nice deer!! I’m hoping for a cow tag as well.Yeah, so far deer and bear point, hoping for a cow tag tomorrow to go with my OTC bull hunt. Good luck to all.
Here is are our bucks from 2 years ago, hoping my dad drew the deer tag, fingers crossed!View attachment 49132View attachment 49133
Surprisingly, I didn’t draw the very easy to draw tag I put in for. The hype was real in CO this year.
While there are more applicants this year, that is mainly due to the fact that everyone piled in to burn their points because the season dates are very good. So tags became “expensive” in terms of points and many people didn’t draw tags that they would have in a normal year (like me and @NBK). The upside may be that because so many people purged their points, perhaps we will see the opposite next year. Hard to say.Record entries certainly f’d the numbers up. What a conundrum we face here. We want the tags we think we should get but at the same time need more hunters afield so we can continue to do what we love.
Great so now we need to choose between the Frank and CO next season? Both? One of the biggest bummers with CO is they don't let you average points.While there are more applicants this year, that is mainly due to the fact that everyone piled in to burn their points because the season dates are very good.

Thinking about doing an OTC archery hunt in CO if I don’t pull AZ deer. Running out of draws at this point so OTC may be my only option. That’s one thing CO is plentiful in.Great so now we need to choose between the Frank and CO next season? Both? One of the biggest bummers with CO is they don't let you average points.
Yeah the point average thing hurt me. Although I wouldn’t have wanted to do that trip without my buddy anyway. Yeah CO vs ID is a tough one. Slightly more adventure with the Frank but probably more game in CO. I’d do either!Great so now we need to choose between the Frank and CO next season? Both?
