I got drawn for my third choice in
NM. DER-1-139 which is unit 16 Nov 3. Anyone have any info to share? Just a general place to start. No horses, we just walk in and pack out on our backs. Is this forest, sage?
Thank you
Ted
 
16 is a big unit. Some of almost any kind of terrain you want to hunt. Its not one of our better deer units, IMO, but the locals can usually find something with a fork that's legal to shoot. I haven't deer hunted there, but I work with some guys that hunt there; in a place that is high, and very steep. They are usually successful, but they aren't trophy hunters.
 
LAST EDITED ON Jun-19-08 AT 06:59AM (MST)[p]I hunted 16a last year and saw a couple deer in the 150 class, but thats all I saw in 7 days of hunting elk. From what I hear the southern part of 16e is were you want to go for deer. Get with Tommy Maldonado [email protected] he has a scouting service/map service that will steer you to your trophy..Top notch guy with great maps...the best maps I have ever saw!
