Drew tag for Unit 33 NM...Never been. Any advice/recommendations from those who have hunted in this unit would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
 
Starts at Caprock and goes west to Roswell. Southwest end is Artesia.

I drew rifle first hunt period...i think nov 7-11...

It goes pretty much from artesia north to roswell (goes 10 miles north of roswell where pecos river intersects 70. east of roswell to Elida..South to caprock and maljamar. back west to artesia. the pecos river runs through the western side...Looks like there are a couple of small lakes/water sources throughout. Much more public land on the southern end of the unit but looks like there are some hills and flats along the pecos river north of roswell that might be good??

Thanks for your help!
 
I put in for that hunt as my second choice,...but drew 17 which was my first choice. From what I hear you need to put your walking boots on and cover some ground...some good deer come from that area.
 
I hunted there a couple years back, first rifle. If you are looking for antelope and coyotes that is the unit to hunt! LOL! I guess I didn't know the area well enough but it was a tough hunt. The Game Warden said to hunt West of the Caprock. Tried that for 2 days with no luck. Moved location and tried 2 other spots with no luck. Did see some doe and some fawns...

Not trying to get you down! The Deer harvest report shows a good enough harvest %. Good luck! Wish I could be more help.
