Well the stars aligned and I pulled a hybrid tag for 76 Early rifle. Anyone else get lucky or going to be hunting up there? I have decent knowledge on the unit but would be down to trade.
Man, I’m not sure where the NW corner is lacking on over all “quality” of the hunt. 76 has the scenery but 76 isn’t even in the same class as 2,10, or 201 when it comes to overall experience of hunting 300 plus inch bulls in the rut.Wow congrats, that is my dream tag. I personally would take that tag over the NW corner units, not for trophy potential but just the overall quality of the hunt.
I was underwhelmed as well76 was an absolute blast 10 to 15 years ago. The last two hunts as of recently I’ve helped in there have been rather disappointing as far as quality of bulls around
Agreed, it’s a fun hunt. To see a lot of elk in badass country. Not sure it’s worth the points it takes at this point though.76 was an absolute blast 10 to 15 years ago. The last two hunts as of recently I’ve helped in there have been rather disappointing as far as quality of bulls around
Not even close to worth the points… but that’s the story with majority of units in Colorado. As someone who’s been on hunts in every “trophy” unit in Colorado the NW corner (2,10, 201) is truly magical and will rival anything in the country as far as top quality elk hunting. After that your in for 15 plus years of waiting to shoot a 275 to 300 inch bull with an outside of chance of something better as far as someone who has limited to knowledge of a of unit.Agreed, it’s a fun hunt.
