it all depends on what you are after. if you are after a 300 class elk and opportunity out the rear then yes colorado is your baby. if you have 15 years to wait for a chance at a 400 class bull then utah is where you want to be. the deer herd on the other hand i can only tell you about utah i have never been in colorado to hunt mulies. the deer are here if you are willing to get off your behind and look for them.

i've thought about this before... and I would live in colorado for the year to year hunting cause their general season public land hunts are better than utahs... so I'd live there for the year to year hunting so I have something to do for the 15-20 years that i'm applying for Utah out of state elk.

I hunted Colorado last year and saw more deer there then I ever have in Utah just on the side of the road.

Ok, seems like Colorado has more votes. What are some good areas in Colorado to hunt?

Really anywhere, haha.. Just do a tiny bit of research and you can easily find units worth buying a tag in. I've hunted one unit far north, several units in the central western part of the state, and this year i'm headed to the southernmost border to try it out. There's good hunting all over, i'm not gonna cheat you out of doing your own research though 
There's a couple units for deer where if you're willing to really do some homework on you can draw trophy class tags in a matter of a couple years, and then there's also units where if you want to shoot just your average 4X4 you can do that almost every year.
Colorado's not your only option though, there's a number of states out there with great hunting and easy to draw tags if you look around. (It can be a ton of work sometimes though)
