I know last year there were some absolute slammers in towns or in the arsenal. You guys seeing any giant town bucks out there? Just hoping you guys had some giants to get my heart pumping before season

The Arsenal also has been loaded with cwd prions for the past 40+ years that the cpw says is destroying our muley herds in Colo!!!

The cpw also claim that it’s the older age class bucks like this one that are unhealthy and die at young ages…spreading cwd through the herd.

It’s all hogwash!

The DOD/Shell nerve gas gene is strong in that feller. ;) Some Texan is in there right now trying to figure out the best way to pull a vial of his “essence” :ROFLMAO:

The prairie dogs there are 2’ tall.

Where are the pics of the ones from Rocky Flats?

Fence is too low for Texans they would struggle to adjust

Uhh, don’t be so sure. It’s been a while since I was there, but there were prisons with smaller fences and less razor wire. It was guarded by armed soldiers also, but I’m not sure where it stands now that it’s been “ cleaned up”.
 
I've decided I am going to drive there and look at these deer sometime. If anyone has suggestions on how to approach the place, like where to drive/park, etc and what season I should go. I can go in December/January or next summer; likely August.

Please shoot me a PM if you have thoughts. Thanks.

I need to go see this place and hopefully a buck or two in person.

Where are you driving from? The Arsenal is easy to find. Its about 5 minutes from Bass Pro Shops. :)

I don’t know what exactly is open to the public as none of it was when I used to go there. I think it was possible to go to the National Eagle Repository, but not quite sure.

Anybody know anything about this buck? There’s a pic in the Colorado Governer’s Tag Buck forum from last year. The guy who posted it said unit 44 but it looks like its in some landscaping.

Golf course neighborhood. Both bucks killed by the governor tag holder last year were neighborhood bucks, living in or near residential areas. The guides just watch until they step onto dirt they can hunt and thats the end for them.

Drove it yesterday. Was on my way back from Arches NP and stayed overnight in Denver to catch a plane this morning. It's 10 minutes from the airport. It's about a 10 mile loop. Most of it is in the buffalo enclosure so you can't get out of your car. You can get out around the fishing lakes though.

I took a bunch of pictures but nothing like some of these bucks.
