Another CO giant takes a dirt nap

One of Aaron Neilsons clients killed this giant yesterday. One of the most impressive deer I have seen come from the plains….

I'd like to see the measurements on him.

Fantastic buck, congratulations to all involved.

How many points is it currently taking to draw most of the plains unit tags?

Lots of units/seasons, and 3 weapon choices as well - so it varies greatly.

Archery: 0-1 point

Muzzleloader: 0-2 points

Rifle: Early season / 1-4 points on average
Rifle: Late Season / 2-6 points on average

If one is interested in "Whitetail Only" tags, they are easier to draw than the "antlered deer" rifle tags, or the archery/muzzleloader tags that are valid for either species.
