    Failed to draw again in 2011

    If I read the back door results correctly, once again I wasn't drawn. No bear and now no deer tag. I was drawing to unit 2 muzzleloader with eight points. 2009 required 6 points 2010 required 7 points. Colorado went up over 40% on my taxes the last two years. I think its time to relocate.
