New to forum and Flagler / Selbert hunting

Hey all,

I'm new to the forum and to pheasant hunting. I grew up sage grouse and forest grouse hunting but haven't done so since I was a teenager. Looking to get back into the birds this year, even bought a dog to motivate me. I'm getting pheasant fever lately, and even though I leave for my elk hunt today all I can think about is birds.

My dad is working out in Limon during the weeks and I was hoping to hunt with him some place out in that direction. Anybody know anything about how the Flagler and Selbert area is? I was looking at the walk-in access atlas and the SWA's and noticed there are a few fields in that area. Any information would be appreciated.

Also, having only lived in Colorado a few years, how much public land is out that way, and is the lack of a main body of water a big deal? I figured I'd buy a blm map of the area, but was curious to get a feel for how much public to private land there is.

Thanks, and look forward to interacting with you all.
 
Flagler/Selbert is on the very southwestern front-edge/fringe of pheasant country coming from Denver - a few birds, but if you've already made the effort to go that far, keep on going east or farther north if you want to find more than a few stragglers... ;)
 
Following up on hen, hen's comment--just get the Walk-In Atlas and start driving/scouting/hunting. Don't be afraid to knock on a few doors if you see birds on private land and can figure out who owns it. Good luck and keep us posted on your hunting this season.

I agree with Rooster!!!! I was out Antelope hunting and saw good sign around there, but it is better East and North a little!!!!:cheers:
