colorado unit 5

[jvanhoy]

Anyone out there archery hunted unit 5? Ive hunted otc14 and 214 the last 4 trips. I have enough points built up to draw 5 in 2016 and was wondering if it would be worth it. If i get lucky enough to tag out this year would like to do some scouting before we head back. Any suggestions on 5 or 441? Is there alot less pressure in draw units? Can draw with 2 or 3 points. Thanks alot.

I've talked to a few guys at work that hunted the south side of gmu 5 for muzzle-loader last year.  They saw a ton of animals and the group had some success.  One of them has hunted up there several times and said he actually seeks out the sheep herders in the area and asks them for info on where the elk are hanging out...saves scouting/spotting time. 
I expect you'll have some excitement.  Good luck.

Thanks . They had sheep in the drainage i hunt last year. It's a little aggravating but  the elk normally aren't to far away. You just have to watch for the big white dogs. Lol
