I'm looking at Lafayette, Arvada, Evergreen, etc. as some potential places to move, but availability of quarry is an important deciding factor on that! Job will be in Denver so I can't be too far away. I assume cottontails are everywhere, what about jacks as well? I know this is a long way off, but I'm hoping the move to Colorado will help me eventually fulfill my desire to fly a tiercel prairie one day .
I can find duck and pheasant within 1-2 hrs of me. For jacks, if you are looking for blacktails, then it is about 2:30 hrs. For white tail. it can be anywhere from down in alamosa to really. Close. I saw a whitetail in one of my fields. However it was only one. Never saw it again. I would love to fly a prairie as well.
