Which road if you don’t mind me asking? Can pm me if you don’t want it out on here

Yes it is. We like it so far. Takes a little practice this was the only one we saw in 4 days but yes some really good rams went down in the otc areas

Sometimes it pays to have an otc sheep tag in your pocket while deer hunting an otc sheep unit. No luck getting a buck but this was much better imo. Glassed this guy bedded about 600 yards out on day 4 of the deer hunt. After a quick game plan we made our way around and up above him on the...

Not at all very happy with him.

Yes it’s probably what I’ll use if I get another tag.

We rough taped him at about 76 inches. Has really good mass and cutters but not very good horn length. No complaining here though. He’s my best yet

All hunts are sold.

Thanks everyone. Nothing better than watching your kids harvest animals.

+1 what LKF said. Southwest of Roswell is your best bet. Lots of public land and lots of hunters but deer can be found if you do your part. The deer love to hide in the thick stuff at the bottom of canyons and arroyo’s. Walking them is almost always a good idea.

Thank you everyone.

My daughter smoked her first bull first thing Saturday morning. Bull was hot and came in screaming. One shot at 20 yards from her 7mm-08 and the bull went down. Super proud of this little girl

Hunts are filling up for next year already

What size rams are you killing on the ranch?

Yea man for sure. I debated night before taking the 243 and I probably should have

Closest town will be Roswell. Hunts are still available at this time

I used 110g sierra tipped game changer and it was a bit explosive. Entrance wasn’t bad but the exit was a little crazy.

well then I guess that makes your argument about more pressure and lost access and blah blah blah worth less than nothing also, since we can’t prove how many if any hunt these properties.

You mean like you talking out your ass about how great the eplus system is lol. You guys will literally say anything to make it sound good. How do I know most these ranches don’t get hunted? Idk maybe just ask the hunters who draw tags **** ask some of the guys who buy unit wide tags. it’s not...

You’re exactly right. The loss of land, access and more pressure on public is all B.S. most of the UW ranches aren’t even hunted by public draw hunters and hell most still dont even know which land is open. Eliminating UW tags and ranches will just reduce pressure on public lands since you...

took this nice goat this morning. 250 yard shot from the ol 25-06. God is good.

160+ bucks very possible on the ranch.

I think the biggest misconception is people think we’ll lose a bunch of acreage and access. When in fact most people don’t even hunt these UW properties most don’t even know which properties are UW. A lot of times the elk aren’t even on these properties during hunting season, of course there are...

Sounds like someone who makes a couple grand off these tags. The way y’all keep uping the price for elk tags it will be cheaper to hunt Dall sheep in Alaska than elk in New Mexico. People are complaining because the system is broken and something needs to happen.

$3000 each

We have 2 diy private land deer hunts for the second rifle in unit 37. Hunt dates are Nov. 18-22. Ranch is over 20,000 deeded acres. For more information shoot me a message.

Yes sir those are the ones that you remember the most.

I can agree with that.

22 days of hard hunting, burning in the 100+ degree temps. Passed on many good bucks waiting on the giant to mess up. He finally did mess up about day 6. I got with 30 yards of him bedded just to have the wind swirl. He busted out so fast and never stopped running. Never could find him...

T The cattle growers and nm council of guides and outfitters pitch a bunch of BS because they make a ton of money off these tags. It’s a cash cow that they don’t want to lose. As NM residents those are our elk. We should be doing everything possible to make sure most of these tags go to NM...

NM as a whole is about 50% private yes but elk occuupied land is not 50% private. With except of a few units. Quick look at a land status map will tell you that. That economic drive argument is BS. No one stocks up on supplies in these small towns. They are buying **** at the closest Walmart...

The draw system is the best but the tag allocation and privatization of our game animals is not. When something like 45% of all elk tags go to private land owners, of those more than 70% go to non residents and another 10% of draw tags go to outfitters. Residents really just get the shitty end...

Here’s an idea. Why not create a program similar to the old aplus. All tags go into the draw, ranches who are enrolled would have hunters assigned to their ranch. This could be done for all big game tags. Yes it may be a bit of a process but it would work. They do similar things in other...
