Jfos Report post Posted January 9, 2022 I have 3 bonus points for elk, I am looking to put in for a cow tag, simply because I want the meat and I have a solid chance of drawing a tag. With that said, I am thinking about putting in for the early rifle hunts in unit 6a & 7w. As far as early cow hunts how good are these units? Or should I put in elsewhere. Appreciate the input!

Crazymonkey Report post Posted January 9, 2022 6a is great for the general cow hunts .we went 4 for 4 on opening day in 2016 2 early morning and 2 late all done by Sunday we had another guy from my friends work up on the hunt and he scored Saturday at the same spot I got mine .It takes a few points and 6 is usually not so good on odds for general it does get better if you do the muzzleloader hunts.

Red Rabbit Report post Posted January 10, 2022 For 6a October rifle cow, you'll need about 7 BP to be in the bonus pass. With 3 bp, I think your chances are about 4%. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roosevelt Mark Report post Posted January 10, 2022 Look at 4a,4b,1 Dec, both of the 5s and of course 3a3c October and November. They are all good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jfos Report post Posted January 10, 2022 Thanks for the input. I appreciate it. I didn’t realize it took that many for a general cow tag in 6. Of course then there’s my friends who drew an early unit 10 bull tag this past year with 0 points And another who drew a late unit 8 bull tag with 0 points . Haha hopefully I can draw the cow tag this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jfos Report post Posted January 10, 2022 One more question for advice. considering my schedule and dates, Now considering the hunts that start Nov 4 for 3a&3c or 4b or possibly 1,2b&2c starting Dec 9th. Are these hunts pretty good as far as success? Also draw odds. never hunted these units before except for nearby duck hunting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
