    Question to the Forum. What is the best, most honest (i.e., money goes to deer, not lining people's pockets), most effective conservation organization for mule deer specifically. I'm familiar with the usual suspects, but wanted to get an account of what people think of as the best and most...

    Colorado 4th Season Countdown

    The countdown to the 4th season is winding down. Checking in on the weather/rut update to see if we're getting enough weather up high to get deer heading to winter grounds by mid-November and hopefully kicking in the rut. 3rd season folks should be chomping at the bit too. Good luck my fellow...

It looks like pushing all 4 deer seasons back by a week for 2016, it seems a lot of people are investing long-saved points to get a season that much closer to the rut. Can anyone confirm this effect for...

I'm looking to book a hunt for my Dad and I for Colorado mule deer and was hoping to get some input on an outfitter we're zeroing in on.

    Dry Creek Basin, Colorado

    Quick question for the Eastman's forum community. I've accumulated enough PP for a hunt in GMU 70 in Colorado for deer. Has anyone spent time in or know the Dry Creek Basin State Wildlife Area? My research and map reviews show it to be rolling sage brush country, possibly winter range? I'm...

    13-14 Non Resident Colorado Deer Preference Points

I wanted to start this thread because it looks like there are a lot of non-resident hunters saving their points for a high quality Colorado mule deer hunt and I'm interested in hearing from you your experiences and recommendations. My Dad and I went on a OTC elk hunt in Unit 30...
