All right some great information here on this thread and some that is NOT right at all!!!
Birdbuster,
Sir you are giving out some REALLY bad information about Colorado hunting.
You can buy over the counter elk tags no problem no worries. You can buy left over elk tags online right now with nothing but the stroke of a key. I have two elk tags this year a bull tag in unit 7 10-20 through 10-28 and a cow tag in unit 471, 11-3 through 11-9. That is 16 days of elk hunting for $80.00 for the two tags. If that is big bucks to you sir you need to stay home. You can't afford hunting.
PS there are 1100 left over tags for bulls in unit 7 alone! thousands more in all the other units!
Go get on the Colorado DOW web sight and have a little look see under left over licenses.
I also bought a left over deer tag in unit 105 and an over the counter archery tag in 104 and 105. There are also left over antelope tags.
As far as bird hunting goes i hunt dove out here to the east. there are thousands of acres of planted sunflowers and other game bird attracting fields out here. Sometimes the dove hunting is Argentina hot some times it's cold it depends on the weather more than anything. I have never paid to hunt birds out here. Most guys will let you hunt on their property if you ask nicely.
The waterfowl hunting is also fantastic up north.
Gaiudo,
IT IS NOT TO LATE TO BUY A BIG GAME LICENSE AND GO HUNTING THIS YEAR. Do not let this piss poor information on this thread get you down. If you have any questions about how to buy a license for the 2007 hunting season please feel free to PM me. That goes for any of you guys wanting to hunt elk this year in CO.
AS far as the .308 and hunting elk or mule deer my personal get er done .308 Win load is the Federal HE 180 gr Nosler PT.
If your rifle will shoot them it is a "killer" load for the .308. 5 round cap for hunting in CO.
Just to reiterate there are THOUSANDS of left over licenses for elk for this season on public land they are $41.00 for a resident.
Go hunting and I want pictures of you and your elk and your M1.
