CHICO BASIN OFFERS PRONGHORN HUNT FOR YOUTH WITH UNFILLED TAGS
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The Chico Basin Ranch and the Colorado Division of Wildlife have collaborated to offer late season youth pronghorn hunters a unique hunting opportunity during the December pronghorn doe season.
Youth hunters who have an unfilled pronghorn tag from an earlier season are eligible to apply for one of a few limited opportunities to hunt this private ranch.
Chico Basin Ranch is an 87,000-acre property located southeast of Colorado Springs near Hanover in GMU 123.
The ranch will provide a limited number of access permits.
Youth hunters must be accompanied by an adult during the entire hunt.
The late youth-pronghorn second-opportunity hunt is only available to youth hunters with unfilled doe or either-sex pronghorn licenses from earlier seasons. Youth with unfilled pronghorn buck licenses are not eligible.
Young hunters, age 12-17, with unfilled doe licenses are automatically eligible for a second chance hunt. Youth hunters with an unfilled either-sex pronghorn licenses must bring their license to a DOW office and get it converted to a doe license before hunting again in December.
The late pronghorn season dates are Dec 5-9.
Interested youth hunters should contact Jonathan Tullar at 719-683-7960 or email at Jonathan@ChicoBasinRanch.com no later than Nov. 23. Available slots will be filled on a first come, first serve basis.
