I know from first hand experience as a landowner that game and fish doesn’t hand out tags very easily for new properties trying to enroll in the system

Story about elk in the NW corner— sure antelope faired about the same or worse. https://www.steamboatpilot.com/news/in-elk-population-reduction-colorado-parks-and-wildlife-biologist-finds-a-silver-lining/

Stoeger m3500 is a pretty good ons

DSC, SCI, and NRA do absolutely the most for national gun rights and hunter rights. Big issues for me!! RMEF protects elk habit, which is also very important. SFW, NMSFW, and/or hunters expo in Utah are all about auctioning western state public tags to raise money for game and fish departments...

Dallas Safari Club and Safari Club International are both solid organizations looking out for hunters rights on the international scene.

EPlus is awesome! It opens up some of the best elk hunting in the state. Super easy now that the maps are online.

Just mostly messing around with all of these adults whining… don’t forget that these kids start at the very bottom in the preference point game.

I have two sons, 12 and 15, that didn’t draw anything. Would someone send me a DM with some of the better or great deer/elk tags available?

I don’t believe that the government would want to remove cows when they leave horses everywhere. Are wolves involved with the decision? Is there a large wolf pack in this area that has gotten the taste for feral cows?

I feel safe out in the woods. You should carry while you are in Albuquerque or other big cities in this state. Crime is super bad.

Lots of positive feedback on eldx. My son lost a nice bull elk this year shooting it with 143 eldx 6.5prc. Not enough not down power when hit in the shoulder.

Nice job! Did you happen to see any deer? I have a leftover archery deer hunt in 29

Can someone fact check this? I heard a rumor that wolves now can’t be reintroduced now because ones migrated in and they are protected by endangered species act.

Great job NMDGF! They just bought this problem property with plans to turn it into a Wildlife Management Area! https://www.abqjournal.com/2507020/land-that-belongs-to-everyone-ex-ranch-becomes-part-of-new-mexico.html

WoodsD9; Yeah - I saw the same thing with small properties so looked into it in depth! The current EPlus NMDGF equation takes into consideration ranch size so smaller ranches may not even get a tag every year depend on the harvest objectives of the unit. That 5 acre ranch may only get a tag...

I totally agree to completely disagree with BHA and NMWF! It’s also total BS to give landowners as many landowner tags like NMDGF have done with Antelope, deer, and some elk units. I personally wish that antelope and deer were managed similar to the E-plus type model where the ranches are...

Yeah. You have a different application number for each species.

For us in the desert, what is the purpose of that sled? Is it for ice fishing? It looks cool.

Thanks for sharing. It’s kind of crazy how few units had elk hunting back then. And no scopes on muzzleloaders.

Do you have a picture of what the rifle hunts looked like back then?

Generational democrats need to watch some old JFK speeches. It isn’t the party of your parents or grandparents! Let’s all try to work together to get this bill killed!

Sounds like you-all will have good family time successful or not. I personally don’t know about packers in the area. Have you thought about hunting closer to the roads? Is there a particular area you are trying to get into?

My understanding is jags are already in Az and NM. I would imagine that it would be super hard to match DNA from these same sub-species. People will probably mess up the reintroduction and wipe and the generics of the few wild ones already here. Give natural time and let the jags take hold...

I saw that Costco has this high-end one https://www.costco.com/maxvac-pro-chamber-vacuum-sealer.product.100536866.html

Thanks

How are you checking? I’m logging into the website and not seeing anything for deer.

Does anyone have unofficial/official updates to the pending stream access litigation? I sure hope that our state constitutional rights are upheld!

It would be cool if western states like UT, NM, WY, MT, UT, NV, AZ, and Alaska could figure out a reciprocity deal for their residents.

Everyone is a non-resident somewhere! It’s an endless battle that will do very little to increase draw odds. It would be cool if somehow you paid whatever your home state charges non-residents for the same animal. If your home state charges non-residents $550 to hunt elk, then WY charges you...

Cutting the season by 2 days is stupid after CPW’s desire to kill all of the mature deer!

Has anyone heard the reasoning for shortening the third season to only one weekend? It was great for hunting with my kids because it had 2 weekends during the season!

You might want to try shooting a 223 or 22-250 between shots at the range.

What's the latest on the game commission? Has she asked any of them to stay?

We had an awesome group of people on the commission! They always looked out for the best interest of NM! I want to send a huge thank you out to them!!

Does the new license include coyotes or do you still need a furbearer as a non-res?

The flying rules are the same as this year. The commission did not pass the new rule.

Probably some people will think these are dumb questions: 1. Lincese to hunt coyotes is free with a deer license 2. Can my 9 year old son shoot a coyote that was called in? Hunter Safety is dumb in Colorado neeeding kids to be 12 to be able to shoot a gun. Do they need to be 12 to hunt non-game...

I love your pop-up camper. Do you mind me asking how you transport the ATV when you bring the camper? Do you drive 2 cars, or put the ATV on top of the trailer?

This is a little bit off topic, but is a direct result of the length of time the draw results take to be released. Including a fishing license with a big game hunt is cool. I was told by the game warden that I had to buy a NR fishing license over Memorial Day even after I applied for a hunt that...

LAST EDITED ON Apr-26-18 AT 08:45PM (MST)[p]Gilbert ?- you and your team are class acts. Awesome that we are able to have more opportunity to hunt oryx, especially in different areas of the range! Aside from this proposal, I would be in favor of having Oryx in every part of the state! I haven't...
