On the way home from opening week I got a ticket in debuque. 37 in a 30, in a huge canyon!?!?
We hunted grand mesa, archery. Lotta fun also Lotta hunters.

Were you on private land? If so and you don't mind pm me the info. Not doing the public land again. We scouted couple days and found a nice 6x6 w 5 smaller bulls mainly spikes and 18 cows. Openning morning we heard more amateur bugling and cow calling than you could imagine and never saw an elk rest of trip. Frustrating!
