Anyone ever hunt unit 681 in Colorado? I have a friend that has property there and he wants me to go elk hunting. All I have to do is get there. He hasn't hunted it much. Just seeing if anyone has hunted there.

Don't know about 681 but my wife and I should be hunting 61 this year after waiting 21 years.

681 looks to be an otc unit . Otc units can be crowded or maybe not. You just don't know because anybody can buy a tag. Most otc units have small to medium bulls but every year some good bulls come out of otc units.

Don't know about that unit. I will be hunting unit 53 OTC this year around Gunnison.

Yea gobbler it is OTC. My buddy owns the land and it has a cabin on it and he has a guide that runs his outfit out of it. You are right the Bulls are not trophy bulls. He has horses so we won't have to pack meat. But they all usually get shots and I can't beat the price. I'll take any legal bull with my recurve.

I am going to Dave. My friend is a real estate broker and he and his son bought this land 20 years ago and built a cabin on it. It borders the government land and he has a deal with an outfitter that he allows to run his business there using his place for a base camp. He is the guy that will be taking us. I have been on lots of hunts like this. Some good and some not so good. I can't beat the price that's for sure. He or his son have always killed an elk on their trips but we will have to hunt high.
