    I don't expect one and it has been 8 years since my last deer tag.

If I get a "Special" draw permit I'm gonna be so MAD! Getting a tag for an area I have no interest in hunting and loosing all my points. Another great idea brought to you from the Colorado DOW.
    I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

    ?? Where are you putting in for a tag, downtown Denver? The area I hunt still has over-the-counter bull tags every year. While I can go several years without seeing an elk in this area, I always see fresh sign (scat, tracks, etc.).

    Okay, I've got to do a little research as I've not heard of this "Special" draw that you mention.

    Where I hunt elk (and deer), the typical PP requirement is 3 points which means that I get to hunt deer in the area once every 4 years. I don't mind this too much as I'm not nearly as fond of eating deer as I am of eating elk.

    I'm sitting at 11 points for elk and I expect that on June 3 I will receive my 1 point for deer. Some day I need to consider where I want to spend these elk points - before the state spends them for me.

    I didn't get an elk tag. So, if anyone needs help with their hunt, I'm available. Those beast are heavy hauling back.

    Default Good draw for me and my buddies

    We all three drew our first choice so we get to go together. Now like armed springs said let's see about those antelopes.
