    Change UNIT-WIDE elk designation in New Mexico to RANCH ONLY!

    How do you play the game if you don’t know the rules??

    Change UNIT-WIDE elk designation in New Mexico to RANCH ONLY!

    Totally agree. BHA and NMWF are both extreme left outfits. They love to cherry pick their data and push a narrative that the world might end soon. They NEVER mention the land it opens up. They also love to paint a picture of EPLUS with as broad of a brush as possible to fit their agenda. If you...

    Change UNIT-WIDE elk designation in New Mexico to RANCH ONLY!

    There are a few guys on here who “get it.” The people who aren’t in that category seem to always be the ones who are uneducated on the program. Solid info that BullDawg87 provided.

    Change UNIT-WIDE elk designation in New Mexico to RANCH ONLY!

    Yes. Yes. The public currently does enjoy the same level of access as the landowner within the hunt dates! If that happens to not be the case you need to document it and make a report. It’s that simple. The NMG&F dept has proven it will go the extra mile to build a case. Nothing is going to...

    Change UNIT-WIDE elk designation in New Mexico to RANCH ONLY!

    Report it just like you would any other game violation. To not make the call is just as bad as not making the call for any other violation.

    Change UNIT-WIDE elk designation in New Mexico to RANCH ONLY!

    Again, it was "open" and totally available for you to hunt. You just chose a public forum to voice your opinion which happens to be totally invalid. You simply did not like the TYPE of access from the location you chose, which sounds like the good old 2-foot type. This is also why you have...

    Park your truck and walk the hell in there! Or unload a bike and use the road if one exists. If you truly think that being "open to hunting" means the gates have to be open and you can drive in there it tells me you haven't read the rules. They can lock any and all gates (even better IMO...

    Unit 3A BS

    I would think if they care about the cash they care about the elk. The “African model” of game management isn’t all that crazy in some aspects. If game has value then people value game.

    You can’t judge ‘em by looking at them on a map. I’ve hunted some killer properties that are between 10-60 acres. Wouldn’t trade them for 500 acre properties. Also, those are SCR properties so it’s not like those landowners are getting tags every year. It might be every few at best, and it...

    Ask “some of the guys”…well, in the case of an area like unit 15 for example, that has 2k tag holders, “some of the guys” amounts to literally a drop in the bucket. I know quite a few guys who hunt almost nothing but UW ranches. You have a preconceived notion based on an opinion. It is baseless...

    Let’s keep the E Plus program

    If someone doesn’t know what a UW ranch is or where to get the map info they can’t be helped, they are dumber than a rock and deserve what they have…an IQ in the single digits. Most of the UW ranches aren’t even hunted by public hunters??? How TF do you know. This is what I love, guys talking...

    Let’s keep the E Plus program

    Why does the price mean so much to you? What’s the cutoff? Who TF cares if they make nothing or 20k? Public resource blah blah blah…you wouldn’t have any if it wasn’t for their private resources… I’d bet you jump at the chance to be president of your HOA, considering how much you love to virtue...

    If they aren’t worth that then the guy won’t get it. Even if they get twice that amount who cares? If he asks too much and waits too long and has to eat them then maybe a lesson will be learned. The house down the street from me wasn’t worth 600k but someone paid 3x more for it. Who cares? Maybe...
