COLORADO LAW AND APPLYING FOR LICENSE
For hunts requiring a License Draw the drawing deadline is April 1st.
When applying for a "Draw License", many errors can be avoided by applying online at www.wildlife.state.co.us. To aide you in determining the correct Big Game Hunt Code you may view or request the Colorado Big Game Brochure online at DOW or call the Colorado DOW at (303) 297-1192. The brochure will also explain license cost and associated fees.

Colorado Law requires that anyone born on or after Jan 1, 1949 must have a Hunter Safety Card from their home state. Without this you will not be issued a license.
