    Let’s keep the E Plus program

    So… I think you know as well as I do that most ranches never activate or use all their tags as they are managing or nobody wants to buy, maybe they don’t even allow hunting. Why can’t we just start verifying the amount of tags allocated and activated. I’m just saying if your getting 40 tags a...

    NM Hunter Safety Rule Topic... WOW!!

    3 kids under 1 years old and 1 year old. Either way its extremely disappointing and after watching the whole thing there seams like it will be a bit of an up hill battle to actually have a legal plan to combat this with real solutions.

    NM Hunter Safety Rule Topic... WOW!!

    I clicked this the other day thinking it would be a good read... Oh boy, it was a youtube video of the commission meeting. I have not been able to watch the whole thing but it took less than 10 minutes to see how many people continue to scam us and the system The amount of kids 6 years old alone...

    Let’s keep the E Plus program

    What's crazy I have been hunting my whole life and up until about 15 years ago never even knew about things like E-tag and land owner vouchers. I started learning about them via antelope and now its the CREAM!! Everything is all about status and look at me at this point. You remove social...

    She's At It Again...

    Basically anytime the government adds “emergency” to an issue it’s free pass to violate any and all rights! Sad what this whole world is coming to! Look at the issues in Hawaii.

    You can site somebody but they have to be convicted! Sounds relative but it’s not the same. Money and politics control the law not the other way around.

    Gonna miss the hunting here but........

    Too many people put personal feelings for someone into their vote instead of what they will do for us and the state/country. I am a leader of my family and just I. General. A leader has to tell someone what is wrong and right for the greater good of the community, family and masses not what they...

    Middle Rio Grande Elk Management

    I have been on this hunt a few times and there is elk there but I have yet to see one! Some of the most elk I track I have ver seen but an incredibly hard hunt and appears the elk are very wise to this! As much track and trails as there are you’d swear you would bump something and walking a mile...

    No scopes on muzzleloaders

    That’s not that good but if your ok with it, cool. The age of the gun has no relevance to the topic imo. And for me that would be the start of the sight in not the end all and where the hours come In I have tons of sabots and powder and pellets. Different strokes for different folks.

    No scopes on muzzleloaders

    It’s just going to cause more wounding of animals. It’s already bad enough that people don’t put in the practice they should for all hunts. It just shows the more primitive type of weapon you use. Personally I think we can both an opinion on whether guns need X or muzzle loaders do or don’t...

    What are Mark's chances of being Governor?

    I did think Mark R beach slapped MLG in that debate. It was like watching an old school boxing match with one side whopping imo! He definitely won that and had great responses and and plans and called her out for on the bull she has said and done! If you haven’t the debate it’s well worth the time!

    And further to this point how many states have hunts you can try with all three weapons and off the same tag? Ever hunt Colorado it’s pretty big eye opener with the amount of orange In the hills and the amount of deer and elk still there year after year! In lots of cases OTC. Politics are...

    That was my biggest issue. Once they take one thing from you it doesn’t stop. And if you haven’t figured it out not many political types have yours/our best interest hand. I was dumbfounded the amount of hunters that were for this. And the reasons why. But that’s modern time and it’s very...

    They aren’t buddy I can tell you that right now. I see how many people apply that don’t even really hunt or a friends just told them to try it.

    No scopes on muzzleloaders

    If you watch any hunting online or on TV I guarantee there are just as many white tails wounded at 20 yards as anything even though theoretically that should be a chip shot! Trying to put ethical standards into a sport/entertainment that is not really required by law is a hard deal. And its...

    No scopes on muzzleloaders

    Paul the portion regarding practice, understanding and effort to learn to hunt and use your weapon is the root of the situation. As hunters the vast majority of people hunting and drawing tags do NOT do any of what is required to have a good hunt, be an ethical Hunter by any standards and...

    Can you elaborate as to why? Not asking in a sarcastic sense but I would like to here A) what your opinion on why this should happen B) what benefit you believe it will have on hunting(ers) and animals? And what is the downside to a scoped muzzle loader and what is considered long range?

    That isn't practicality anymore whether you like it or not. So you either don't hunt, get luck as hell or try to change things. How lucky are you? I am not lucky. Nobody wants to get into the mix but we are all going to have to try other wise we will watch NM turn to CA. And if we could all...

    To me this may make sense on the surface. But its like a cavity and putting Oragel on it. Temp fix but you need to get to the root of the problem. And here is why. Nothing the G&F does is for anything but the success of the G&F and coincidently does not match vast majority of hunters. If this...

    ABSOLUTELY TRUE!! I know people that do this crap every year and draw every damn year. Gaming the system no question. I also agree all odds for NR and residents need to be equal.

    E-plus FYI

    I can see that for sure. You definitely have to take all things posted with a grain of salt. But factoring in most if not all of the western states not utilizing this method even if it’s 50% of the 14k it’s still a lot of tags. Especially when a lot of private land tags are used to hunt on...

    Maybe so but some of it’s about the principal of just giving LO tags to LO on silver platter.

    For me as it is it’s not likely you will draw many hunt yearly lucky to get 2. And in most cases you will not draw your 1st choice that you really want or you strategize on how to draw the best worse hunt lol. if I am not going to draw often I would like the hunts to be a bit more on the...
