muygrandeColorado Unit 77 for elk/mule deer
I am thinking about hunting this unit for a late October early November elk hunt. I would like to hear comments from you as to the quality of animals to expect out of this unit.

muygrandeOK, I can cope with there being no unit 77 hunters on the board, how about unit 75? Thanks.

robncoloradoI live in 75 and hunt 77. Both can be good.
What type of weapon do you hunt with?
Quality can be excellent, but.... they are not behind every tree.
If I was going to come hunt the area....I would do as much scouting with a map as possible.... look for the areas off the roads and the escape routes..... and I would hunt those.
After I had researched the area with maps, I would come to the areas you wanted to hunt a week before season started and start looking for animals..... then on opening day, you would hopefully have a few herds found that you could hunt......
Have you been here before?

muygranderobncolorado, thanks and great to hear from a "local". I have been a "tourist" in the area but not a hunter. This will be a fully guided hunt by one of your local operators who is very familiar with the country. I am a rifle hunter and this hunt would be during the third rifle season I believe the first week of Nov.
