I'm back in the game in Colorado-this time as a non-resident after killing a billy while I was still a resident about 10 years ago and waiting the 5 years before applying again.
Chad-your odds in Colorado will be quite slim with the new system of allowing N/R hunters to only pay the application fee for a preference point rather than submitting the full license fee in cash. You will need the minimum 3 regular points before you have a chance. Then you will begin accruing weighted points. With the number of Colorado applicants skyrocketing this year under the new payment system, your chances will be mighty slim. But as they always say you won't draw if you don't apply!
