New to the forum, stumbled on this site during my elk hunting research. It has been almost 9 years since I got a chance to go to Utah to chase Elk , back to back kids and life has just gotten in the way. I have been hunting whitetail in N IL for the last 15 years since I moved from Texas.

Looking to head to Colorado for an OTC DIY bowhunt in 2020, a few of the guys that hunt prefer a gun and guided trip (luxury) hunt and dont want to just embrace the suck of a DIY. Looking for a like-minded partner or group.

I haven’t heard about the possibility so thanks for the heads up. I am actually putting in for Utah LE for deer and elk cause a buddy lives there and has horses, will add MT and ID to the list.

Massac is a little further south, I’m in Cumberland. Looking at returning to CO or ID next year. Heading to WY this year.

Some zones you can draw without any points. I am going solo in 2020 zone 551. Let me know if you are still planning on making the journey. I don't have anyone to go with either.

Lucky, I live in SE Wisconsin. I relocated from Texas myself. Picked 551 as the success rate is roughly 23% for archery with a 100% draw rate with 0 points. What do you mean by lots of hurt?
