A military buddy of mine wants to do a CO Antelope hunt next year and because I chase Wapiti in CO he seems to think that means I should know about where to find the goats. I don't, and frankly, I wouldn't even know where to begin. I know of several places in NM that have a ton of antelope but not in CO.

If we do this, I'm sure it would be with a rifle.

If anyone can throw me a bone, please PM me.

Thanks everyone,

Josh

As far as I can tell unless you have some points built up you aren't likely to pull a tag somewhere with public land (or I've overlooked the places). I'd say either WY (or other states) or be prepared to pay for a hunt?

Wyoming seems to be the place to go. There's a couple guys that I know (live in CO) that go to Wyoming to hunt public land.

I got a nice Colorado Antelope this last year in a draw area. I know it isn't much help for the over the counter units but there are some nice ones in Colorado if you can find them.

Look into some of the walk in access areas on the eastern plains and southeast. There are some good goats in there. About like any public over the counter tag though, not a lot, but they are there.

I'm not sure if you were using the term generally, but from here: Colorado Parks & Wildlife -
Walk-in Access Frequently Asked Questions

State and Program-wide, Walk-In Access does not confer permission to hunt big game.

This just occurred to me. Since he's military he can see about taking leave and getting the class and range pass from Ft. Carson and hunt pinion canyon training area. that's my plan for this year. damn near zero hunting pressure and there should be no units training there in Aug.
