COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Southern Colorado hunters looking for tips to improve their elk hunting success are invited to a free seminar in Colorado Springs Oct. 29. The Colorado Division of Wildlife is sponsoring the event.

The clinic is a way for elk hunters to learn how and where to hunt elk and improve their success rate. The seminar covers several topics including preparation for the hunt, elk biology, hunting techniques, and ethical hunting.

“Beginning hunters and those with limited elk hunting experience will get the most from the clinic,” said Steve Lucero, an education/outreach coordinator for the DOW. “The clinic will have a lot to offer in terms of improving hunting skills, how to find quality hunting areas, and how to make sure you have a safe, successful hunt. Our goal is to help Colorado hunters improve their success in the field and provide an introduction to those who want to learn more about elk hunting.”

The clinic is from 6 – 9 p.m. at the DOW office at 4255 Sinton Road.

Admission is free, but space is limited to the first 50 who sign-up by calling (719)227-5200.
