I had a doe and buck tag for 2nd season in colorado for unit 25 and 26.

Woke up ay 4am. Got ready and ate some breakfast. Started waking at trailhead at 5am. Waked 2 miles in and had to wait till got legal light. We wanted to walk through these fields in the light. At 7:15am it was legal light, so we started walking slowly. The all of a sudden a little buck with a lot of does. I shoot the buck and it dropped. We watched it for about 5 minutes. The does wouldn't leave. I got a good angle and shoot a doe about 90 yards from were the buck was laying. So I had a buck and doe down by 7:50am on opener morning.

Coloradobuck, we are hunting by sweetwater.

My dad almost shot another one the same size just cause it was close. But couldn't get a shot. So we are heading back down there this weekend in search for his buck.
We seen about 12 does and 1 buck...
1 elk track.
