Even with a grain of salt, that pretty much sums up my observations. There was an extremely low success rate for muzzleloader where I hunted confirming my observations of that horrible shot to pieces unit....

I almost wish I had not opened that up. It makes me feel sick to think that I used 5 points last season to secure an incredibly worthless tag in an area that was reported to have had a terrific herd population by the DOW and Local Biologists..

That was the first time I used points to hunt an animal in Colorado. It will be the last time I make that mistake without scouting the area first. That is a FACT...

The Colorado DOW and their "Animal Studies" definitely cant be relied on...

Boots on the ground from now on before I use my points.

Well look at the bright side, I learned a valuable lesson lol

The only number on those sheets that are worthwhile would be the number of hunters in the unit. At the end of the day it is just a piece of the puzzle, and mallard you learned a great lesson haha, boots on the ground is the way to go!
