I have had the Iowa Tibet GTX for 2 FULL years now and i think they will make it through a 3rd.. I hunt 5 solid months a year, thats about as good a bump as i can give ANY product! Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

You will NOT have time to mess with a single pin site and if your moving that much on a ibex hunt you will not need to worry about it anyhow. Boss hog 7 deadly pins, start at 40 or 50 and work out to 80-100 for sure. If your not shooting well enough at 60-80 hire a pro and take some lessons...

LAST EDITED ON Apr-12-18 AT 08:41AM (MST)[p]Only 200,000? That means I have a one in 3.33 chance of drawing a tag! I'll take those odds any day. HAHAHAHA me too Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

I'm batman Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

NM is one of the few state in the US with GROWING hunter numbers something we can all be happy about. Draws are tough but we all know areas that are 50-90% draw odds you just gotta trade quality of hunt for time in the woods. We are also blessed with landonwer tags that we can buy at anytime...

Warning as well: Stay with your wife the whole time that unit is over run with illegals and it IS A ISSUE ON HUNTS! I am super surprised that its not been talked about yet. I will no longer apply my kid in that unit for that reason! Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

Thanks Carlos- just got one yesterday from Game and fish! thanks for the offer Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

Its a good hunt but big deer are super hard to find! Snow helps and kills the hunt. Don't waste time scouting early in the year but do get up and learn the road a little since all the gates will be locked up in December. The fact that you will see NO deer in summer is NOT a issue the deer are...

Its nothing like 2B, its a world class hunt!!!!!!!!!!!! You are going to see far less deer but better quality, its a 180+ hunt for sure! Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

Great to hear! Thank you for the post! My kid drew a killer ranch near springer 4 years ago and killed a 80" goat his first time hunting at 8 years old, so I was hoping for the best!!! Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

I though that i knew most of the ranches in 56, but this name is new to me? Anyone know it or what it may have been called in the past, my 13 year old drew this ranch this year. Lots of tags!!! Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

Super fun hunt........ Get in shape, get in shape, get in shape..... Easy to get around the Floridas and find goats, not so easy to kill them, they have extra eyes and nostrils!!! Be ready to sneak and have a BLAST! Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

If you have snow the hunt can be OK. I guided that hunt the first few years they had it with 25 tags...... 80 is way to many for that area IMO (I will no longer guide that hunt). Shoot any legal bull you see, but you might kill a good Jic bull pushed in by snow. I am slammed right now, but...

Thant hunt has been tough in the past. Deer numbers are not what they once were! Dates are still WAY WAY pre rut! You could find a giant, its not a numbers game, stay in the foot hills and GLASS GLASS GLASS.. I would also chain all the roads in the area you plan to hunt the day before the...

Thank you very much for the time! Hope to hear from you again :) Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

This is a new one for me.......... any feedback? Got a buddy that drew it Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

Last time I hunted it was a few years ago, but it was epic hunting!!! its a super place!!! stay on top if the mesa, don't drive down the back hill! You will see more goats in the lower stuff but the upper mesa is best for big goats! Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

TO is one of the best ranches in NM for goats in that area!! I had a client draw the Walken J a few years ago.... was the only antelope hunter I have ever guided where we did NOT kill a goat. We saw 2 bucks in 3 days.......... was rough but it could have just beem the year?? Chris Guikema...

You can hunt whole season, however landowners, outfitters or guides might schedule only 5 day hunts??!? Depends on who you are hunting with and how they want things scheduled! Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

Helping out a friend here with raffle ticket sales (I hope)for the Eddy County 4H YOUTH shooting clubs hopes of traveling to state championships. The cow hunts is on our ranch located in unit 34, at almost 50,000 acres and 100% harvest on cow hunts for years its a super trip! Hunt on call if...

Fishing spots.................. call me anytime on the right spots but really if you fly fish you cant go wrong from Navajo dam all the way to Blanco!!!! If you like to drown worms, from Crusher Hole to just below the village take out is where you want to be! Great fishing everyday of the...

Don't get me wrong..... its a great chance to just have a tag! However fishing in the area is far better than the hunting now days. As a outfitter I try and post the same truth about units and hunts I would and DO tell clients that call me about the areas in NM. I have a lease in 34 almost...

My house is in 2A, if you draw 2A you will still not have a good tag in your pocket!!!! NM has 2C and a little in 2B as the only hunts in the state worth drawing for quality deer. Other area will give up a few monsters but NM is in sad shape for deer!! Makes me sick, deer hunting was one of...

The Anti-Trapping Bill (HB 426) and the Ban Coyote Contest Bill (SB 253) will both be heard in the House Agriculture, Water, & Wildlife committee this Friday 2/27/2015 (8am - Room 307). If you can make it to Santa Fe for the committee please do so, the animal rights folks will, no doubt, be...

would nt apply for 2B bow in sept!! Jan is a whole other ball game Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

its 2C!!! don't hunt ice canyon! 2b is not a fun hunt with a bow unless you are a local and have a ton of time to burn! I drew 2B 3rd rifle, would not apply for 2B bow!!! Spend some time and get ready to not see many deer. Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com

Deer in 2A are local deer, not much of a migration into that unit. Hunts have been very tough in 2A the last few years! Chris Guikema www.compasswestoutfitters.com
