If you love to hunt elk I don’t see how anyone could argue against the program. I really think it comes down to jealousy. Like I’ve said before I have been applying for elk in AZ (no eplus, point system) every year for 19 years and never have drawn a tag. In NM I’ve been lucky quite a few times...

More cool fresh NM water for cattle and wildlife. Finished water project last year. Had to doze a road to get the water drilling rig in, that added to the cost but if you’re going to have cattle you’re going to have to have the water. Open to all licensed elk hunters this year.

The elk benefit from what these landowners do and it’s all open to the elk hunter! Miles of New wildlife friendly fences and good clean water to drink

They won’t be raising cattle for long with one water source….a rancher that has to haul water all week is going to eventually drill a well or two…..benefit to all wildlife and his cattle. I talked to a good friend today about putting in a new well and a few downstream water lines on his...

on 1200 acres in dryhot southern NM and only having one water source will not make it.what if the source dries up, the pump goes out and no one is there all week, the well goes dry the cattle would have to walk too far. Not good and I don’t know any cattle men that would only have one tank on...

These two labs love a good cat hunt show with hounds in it.

Pay the rent with them…. Anyone who thinks one drinker on 1200 acres in NM is enough for a herd of cattle I know doesn’t know cattle!

Most people want fat cattle that don’t have to walk miles for water every day. One water source on 1200 acres isn’t good ! This rancher spent a lot of money putting in a 11/4 inch poly pipe water line to a new tank almost a mile underground so it wouldn’t freeze up in the winter and the cattle...

Cattle will be hurting if they only have access to only one water tank on 1200 acres. Especially when the temps hit 100 and it hasn’t rained in 6 months. Most drinkers are put in for livestock that elk, deer, antelope, bear and every other type of wildlife use here in the dry south west.

All these pics were taken this week except the pics of the bulls drinking out of one of the EPlus landowner water tanks. Its just as full today and elk are still coming in. Precious water, can’t live without it.

I’ve been turkey hunting this week and have noticed all the dirt water tanks are bone dry. I’ve seen a lot of elk at these drinkers over the years but it’s been a long time since they’ve held any water. I’ve gotten to know a few eplus elk landowners over time and I’m allowed to turkey hunt on...

Food establishment will be in a cooler in the truck.

I thought I needed a new deer rifle last year and bought a 270 WSM. Your 270 is a great deer rifle with a new Night Force on it is probably all you need. But it is fun looking at and buying new hunting rifles.

Set up a blind in the forest where I’ve been seeing birds. About 9 am I had this gobbler and about 8-10 hens come in. I played with the camera and got some pics then missed him clean….32 yards…lost my arrow too. 😢😜

Dang it man that made me laugh.😂

I watched some of officer Hare’s service. When his father spoke he told the crowd that the gun did not kill his son a deranged violent criminal killed him and that our guns shouldn’t be taken away. The anti gun, pro violent criminal rights Governor was sitting there front and center and when Mr...

It seems like LEO’s have to treat the violent criminals with kid gloves today because they might be called racist or accused of racial profiling and lose their job if the outlaw isn’t a white guy. In a liberal state like NM it has to be hard. We had a 23 year old guy come through town a couple...

These boys had a couple hens up in a thicket they were following. Gobbling at every sound they heard.

Not worried about the draw. I have a down payment on a LO tag if unsuccessful. If I do draw I told the landowner we will apply it to next year. win/win. I’ve been applying for NM Big game for a lot of years and never once had any kind of problem. Sometimes I put in early and sometimes...

The video of officer Hernandez just goes to show you how this anti cop atmosphere has made the police in NM become so gentle to these criminals. They don’t want to be perceived as racist and aggressive because of retaliation from the woke NM politicians. I would look for another occupation. I...

That’s the difference between Florida and New Mexico. In NM the police are afraid of getting locked up if they get too aggressive with a felon cop killer. He has rights and the liberal politicians protecting him. The NMSP officer he murdered didn’t.

The Governor can now call for more gun control of lawful residents. The Governor has blood on her hands along with NM DA’s and judges. They tie the police’s hands then cry when one of them is murdered. They support Defund the police….Dark out along an interstate, the trooper should have gotten...

This guy is a product of liberal, woke, weak, no common sense democrats. Sanctuary cities, no bail release, defund the police, in and out of prison. Read what he has been charged with over time then tell me why he was out of prison. Oh yea some liberal DA wanted him out.

Early Friday morning a NM State Police officer was shot and killed on the side of I 40 near Tucumcari when he he stopped to check on a guy. The suspect shot and killed him then ran off and he is still at large. The only thing they have said is he is armed and dangerous and not to approach him...

Small Contributing Ranch UW ….that has water all year and all the wallows and water holes nearby on the forest have been bone dry for a very long time. I didn’t have a tag last year but I scouted with permission anyways. Never saw another person. I would hate to see hunting land like this go...

Plenty of birds so far.

Almost time to arrow another gobbler. Followed these guys to their roosting area a couple nights ago and caught them the next morning. Found the hens too.

This has all the signs of liberal BHA or NMWF. I’m sure more of their liberal, woke members will show up soon. NMG&F knows more about what is good for NM elk and NM elk hunting than these liberal groups and they are doing a great job as you can see with the hundred’s of thousands of applicants...

Liberal hunters trying to end some great hunting. Why would anyone want ANY hunting land to go away or any kind of elk hunting opportunity just because they don’t agree with the program? Kind of like gun laws …..just a little at a time until they are gone. I imagine these hunters are Biden, MLG...

This all started when some guy gets on here and cries about a gate across a private road that is locked but the land is wide open for him to hunt. If it is a county road that is a different story it needs to be open. There are so many great places to hunt elk in this program it isn’t funny. I...

I hate it when someone gets on a forum and campaigns to take away hunting land from the DIY or outfitted hunter by claiming it’s not right that a landowner locked his gate and I had to walk or go someplace else. We all own the National Forest and that wasn’t blocked off it was private. As I’ve...

Saying you can’t hunt on a unit wide ranch because the gate is locked doesn’t mean chit ! It means you don’t want to hike in. If a landowner locks his gate and….“tells you that you can’t hunt it “….then he will lose his elk landowner vouchers. If he locks his gate and you cross the fence to...

You going to replace the ranchers livestock when the gates are left open and they all get out or gather them all back up and haul them all back to the ranch?
