Shot a mature ram in NM. Made some sausage and burger, the burger is some of my favorite. Great taste with a little bit of fat added. I'd eat it over mule deer. The backstrap was pretty tough
In your application for the Wildlife Taskforce? Would have been nice to have someone who has been on both sides of the res NR draw. Do you get a rejection letter? Lol
Cheatgrass is a losing battle. Too widespread and too prolific, I don't know what the answer is. Are they planning to spray that again? If not, it will makes its way in
Had the tag last year but didn't go until end of the season. The bulk of the antelope herds were not in the HMA. I'd be happy to hunt the unit again without HMA access
mntnguide has given the best advice on that hunt. At best it was a one year long shot hunt. Some people made it happen and filled tags but it wasn't easy. I don't even know why the hunt is being offered again since they plan to kill the rest of the herd via helicopter this winter.
