Limited Draw Licenses for Deer & Elk
If you were born on or after Jan. 1, 1949, you must have a hunter education card or certificate before applying or buying a license in Colorado. To get a Colorado Deer or Elk license in a limited draw area first you must apply for the license postmarked no later than April 1, 2008. The Colorado Big Game brochures and applications will be out around February 15, 2008. Click here to E-Mail for a Colorado Big Game Brochure & Applications The 2007 license costs for bull elk are $501.00 plus a $3.00 application fee. The license costs for Deer are $301.00 plus a $3.00 application fee. If you draw a license you must purchase a $5.00 habitat stamp before they will mail your license. If unsuccessful in the drawing you will get your money back minus the application fee for each license. If unsuccessful in the drawing for a first choice license, you will also get a preference point for each year that you apply. New in 2006 !!! To receive a preference point you must pay a $25 preference point fee if you have not purchased a Colorado hunting or fishing license in the previous year. To see Colorado 2007 Big Game Brochure (Click Here) And scroll to page 3(5 of 5) to PREFERENCE POINT HUNT CODE
Preference Points & How They Work The preference point system for bear, deer, elk and antelope is designed to distribute limited licenses fairly. One preference point is awarded to a hunter who applies properly and who is unsuccessful in drawing a license for the first-choice hunt code. Preference points are for individual hunters and species. That means preference points you earn applying for elk are only for that species. No one else can use your points. Priority goes to the person with the most preference points. Group applications receive priority on the basis of the group member with the fewest points. Second-choice hunt codes do not generate or use preference points. Licenses issued to successful second-choice applicants will list accumulated preference points. If unsuccessful for your first choice, you will be notified of accumulated points on your refund stub, your second choice license or over-the-counter license. When you draw a first-choice license, your preference points will drop to zero Preference points accumulate until you draw a license as a first choice. If you don't apply at least once within three consecutive years for that species for which you have preference points, they will be purged from your file. Applying for preference points will keep your file active for that species.
