1411.1 | muzzle loading permits delayed | CSC32::J_HENSON | Don't get even, get ahead! | Tue May 30 1995 10:32 | 28 |
| There was an article in Sunday's Colorado Springs Gazette-Telegraph that
stated that permits for special muzzle loading hunts and other special
hunts would not be issued until late June. The delay was blamed on
their system, or administration thereof.
As permits for special, early-season muzzle loading deer and elk hunts
are only available through a draw, I am assuming that this means that all
muzzle loading permits will be issued late. Can anyone confirm this?
Also, the article only said that permits for other special hunts would
not be issued until late June, but didn't say which 'other special hunts'.
Can anyone fill in the blanks on this one? According to the regs, all
permits should have been sent out last week. I haven't received anything,
and am wondering if anyone else has.
The article also mentioned that there would be a special late-season,
close-in muzzle loading, shotgun type hunt for deer at the Air Force
Academy. By close-in, I mean areas like the golf course and other
parts of the Academy that are close to housing, offices, class-room
buildings, etc. Hunters for this will only be allowed to use weapons
with limited range such as shotguns and muzzle loading rifles. The
kicker to this is that these permits will be issued BEFORE the state
issues limited draw muzzle loading deer permits. So, if you have
applied for a muzzle loading deer permit, and are considering the special
Air Force Academy hunt as a backup in case you don't draw out, you're
out of luck.

1411.9 | What is the story? | PEAKS::WASON | | Thu Jul 06 1995 13:40 | 10 |
| Well I didnt get my antelope tags.
But I did get a voucher # for my pref ponts,But.....
MY elk tag I asked for a cow as first choice then a general season bull tag
If I didnt draw. I got a bull tag and they said I was succesful, at what Iam
not sure BUT no voucher # no pref point???
Anybody know the story on that, did I thow away a point just cos Iam to lazy
to go to Kmart. That would really suck If you threw away 4 points for a nothing
tag.

1411.11 | I'd call the Division of Wildlife. | MULEY::KOOSER | Too many hobbies. Too little time. | Thu Jul 06 1995 18:27 | 8 |
| re .9
My understanding is that you should still get a point for this year
if
you didn't draw on your first choice. If you put in for a second
choice or a general season tag it shouldn't cancel your point(s)
received this year or accumulated from prior years. Is that how
everyone else read it?

1411.12 | the results are in (almost) | CSC32::J_HENSON | Don't get even, get ahead! | Fri Jul 07 1995 15:35 | 5 |
| I bagged a buck antelope tag (southern half) and a muzzle-loading buck deer
tag. Since I only applied for a preference point for elk, I'll have to
make do with over-the-counter.

1411.13 | public meeting | URQUEL::J_HENSON | Don't get even, get ahead! | Wed Aug 09 1995 12:11 | 40 |
| This is kind of late, but I just read this in yesterday's Canon City paper.
If you hunt or plan to hunt in Colorado units 57,58,581, 59, 511 or 512, you
may want to listen up. In case you don't have your unit map handy, these
units cover the area north of the Arkansas River between Salida and
Pueble, west of I-25, south of the Douglas/El Paso county line and U.S.
Highway 24, and east of the Arkansas River from Buena Vista to Salida.
Three public meetings will be held to take comments on a
draft management plan with the following goals.
1) To reduce or eliminate competition between deer, elk or antelope
herds and domestic livestock for food, and
2) To help with damages to pasture fencing by the same big game herds.
The plan has been drafted by 12 committees made up of local sportsmen,
land owners and land management agencies.
The first meeting was held last night (August 8) in Salida. The second
in Canon City tonight at 7 p.m. at the BLM office located at 3170 E.
Main St., and the third on Thursday (Aug. 10) in Divide.
You can contact the DOW office in Salida at (719)539-3529 between 8
and noon for a copy of the draft. It wasn't stated in the article, but it's
my guess that you can also call this number for the exact time and
location for the meeting in Divide.
I plan to attend the meeting in Canon City tonight. If anyone is
interested in attending this one, send me email.
According to the newspaper article I'm citing, this information is
from a news release. The article didn't say who issued the release,
or when it was issued.
This seems to be awfully short notice. Perhaps news of this was made
public earlier and I just missed it.
