    Report Finds That New Mexico’s Elk Licensing System Favors Wealthy Landowners and Out-of-Staters Over Residents

    NMWF was so proud when they got NR's cut to 6%. In fact all they did was drive NR's to landowner tags and reinforce the landowner strangle hold on the state. Well done!

    Report Finds That New Mexico’s Elk Licensing System Favors Wealthy Landowners and Out-of-Staters Over Residents

    Why do Game and Fish departments always walk away from easy revenue? They aren't going to get rid of landowner tags, so simply charge $5,000 for each landowner tag. It would easily double their 46 million budget.

    Bonus Point Report – 2023 Elk-Pronghorn

    NR with lifetime license claiming the department called him yesterday and is mailing a tag because he was falsely under the 10% cap. From coueswhitetail.com https://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/115033-anyone-else-get-a-call-from-azgfd-about-draw-mixup/

    Radio question.......

    We use the Baofeng's with nagoya 771 and 701 antennas. They seem to have fairly good range, good battery life. Stick with the FRS/GMRS channels if you are worried about licensing. It's easy to get the license too.

    What’s your #1 tip for Coues

    Tripod and the best binoculars you have. I'd rather leave my gun in camp than my binos!

    Simplify what tech should be banned/restricted

    Seems the decline coincided with the rise of battery operated devices. Instead of limit or banning, why not shift tags to, or add more, primitive seasons?

    Elk 4B North Early Bull Tag

    I believe those 4B North hunts used to be for north of the Hutch Ranch Road. Going all the way to the Apache Sitgreaves boundary opens up some pretty good areas. I think it will be a fun hunt! My wife just got a cow over there on a management hunt and there were no shortage of elk. Good luck!

    3B Early Archery

    Those dates will make the last week of that hunt absolutely phenomenal. There will be some big bulls moving in from Unit 1 and the Rez. Always one or two 370+ bulls in the Woolhouse by that time. It's going to be an incredible hunt if that's what you drew!

    Credit Card Hits

    They wouldn't close the credit card update and then let it go to Monday, would they?

    If a guy were to retire in AZ..

    I'd day draw a line from Chino Valley to Prescott Valley/Dewey to Camp Verde/Cottonwood to Payson would be best for temperate weather. More elk and small stream fishing on and around the Payson side.

    Credit Card Hits

    Invalid card rejection due to fraudulent activity doesn't necessarily mean you won't get the tag(the following is the reason they started charging cards soon after the update deadline). Happened to me several years ago. My card was part of a major credit card theft that made the news. I drew...
