Come this January I'll be doing some bow hunting in unit 34. I've been reading up on the unit here on the forums and I feel like I've made a mistake. I should have put in for elk in 34 instead of deer.
I haven't been scouting yet. I'll get to do that next month on. I'm aiming for somewhere south west of Weed or north of Timberon. 2-4 miles off the roads would be ideal. From what I've read it's not easy to get that far in without coming upon an ATV trail or a hiking trail with people on em.
Any tips on this unit for first archery deer would be greatly appreciated. Will the unit be recovered from the recent fires by January? I have zero NM hunting experience.
