Since the deadline has passed, is anyone willing to share what you put in for?

I put in for my first hunt in Colorado, unit 161 mule deer third season. Never stepped foot in Colorado so I'm looking forward to exploring a new state while trying to find a decent buck.

I put in for points for elk and antelope. I put in for doe deer for third and fourth season. My friend I usually hunt with died in November so I figured it would be easier to handle a doe by myself than a buck.
That's when you pass the bigger bucks and shoot a fork horn..

I'm just collecting points. I doubt that I'll draw my muzzle loader deer tag for either unit. Points for elk and antelope.

I know some hunters who draw a cow elk tag only to shoot a calf.

They say that they are a lot easier to pack out and the eating can't be beat.
yeah, i figured a doe would be easier to handle on my own, but maybe I will get brave next year a draw for a buck and maybe get it close to the road like I usually do.

Points across the board for all three of us for in Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota , South Dakota, Georgia , Kansas and Utah.

LE DEER UTAH for me.
LE ELK UTAH for me.

Alberta archery bears in May.

Surprise birthday trip in late December. (Won’t know what that is until August)

Potentially going to do an OTC elk one last time in Colorado before she is gone forever.

Provided that NM gives everyone in my household the expected dose of red, it will be OTC elk in Colorado for me.

Will put the kids in on the secondary draw in CO, so that could change things. Points in CO, WY, AZ, UT, NV

And of course, whitetails at home.

I have general elk and deer in MT, put in for deer in CO and raffle tags. Will put in for NV next, but likely only for points.

3rd season deer. I was chasing a unit 40 3rd season tag but with the new 75/25 split I likely wouldn't draw for quite a few years. I decided to burn them on a unit without an OTC elk season going at the same time just to have a better experience. I have 3-4 more points than it should take to draw even with the new allocations. I'm really looking forward to it as I haven't been West in a couple years.
