Greetings from Colorado

[Dsquared149]

I'm a retired CA LEO and moved to CO in 2019 right before the pandemic started. In CA, I loved calling coyotes, shooting ground squirrels (can't really call it hunting), deer and pig hunting. I handload all my rifle ammo: 223, 22-250, 7mm RM, 308, 30-06 & 300 WM. I finally got my CO hunting license this year so I need to learn how to hunt in the prairie lands (east of the Rockies); the terrain is so different from CA.

welcome

welcome.
Plenty of coyotes out east, and even towns of pdogs can be found in many places too. Mostly private property but if a guy takes the time to knock on some doors he can usually get permission to hunt some ranch's. Getting permission to hunt any big game is a bit tougher.

Not yet. Just got my CO license last month and trying to decipher the big game point system. I hooked up with a guy who was looking for a partner for pronghorn hunting and we put in for tags. Scouted the area 3 weeks ago; the terrain was so flat; ot used to that coming from CA.
