    E-plus review

    I agree ranchers are contributing a lot if not the most towards elk restoration in New Mexico. It's just frustrating when you see the number of tags that are in the draw and the number given to land owners. NM had become a pay to play state when it comes to elk hunting, the deepest pockets just...

    E-plus review

    I wish the tag allocation wasn't so lop sided in some units. I think the majority (51% or higher) should go to the public draw. It's tough to draw a tag in NM.

    Sleeping Bag Thoughts

    Look at "hyke and byke" bags. It's a smaller company but they make a quality bag. I bought my bag a couple years ago off Amazon and have no reason to get a new one. Lightweight and durable. When i bought the prices were a little bit cheaper but the company is growing in popularity so prices...

    Nevada draw

    I don't know about just deer but i apply for sheep, deer, antelope and elk. I also buy the silver state tag for each species and my total was $340. It's a lot but it's worth it to me for the very slim chance I'll draw something. If you're going to apply for deer id at least throw in for antelope...

    Barbary Sheep NM

    You're in the right place, i harvested a ewe in feburary. Those sheep live in some incredible country. I had to pass up a couple of shots on other sheep because i couldn't figure out how to get above the cliffs they were on. The ewe i harvested fell off a 150ft cliff (not the plan) but made the...

    Late season hunt maybe?

    I second what barefooter19 said, pick up a cow tag in NM. The state is pretty over lenient with the landowners season dates so you could make something work. Im not sure where you're home of record is but if by chance it's NM then you also get 50% off for being military. Keep in mind if you pay...

    Tikka or X-Bolt

    I've got a tikka t3 in .270 and an xbolt in 300 winmag. Bought them both brand new and followed barrel break in procedures. Both rifles are better than anything I owned before but that tikka is a tac driver. Most accurate gun I own. I love the xbolt and use it more often because it just has that...

    Dogs

    German shorthaired pointer named Hoyt. My first bird dog. He is a handful but ive never been around a smarter or more high energy dog in my life. Luckily he's only about 7 months old so we have a lot of days a field together! He'll be duck hunting in the fall and quail hunting in the winter her...

    FOUND- EXO 5500

    I bought the exo 3500 before last season and im only mad i didn't get it sooner. Hauled out a de-boned bighorn ewe about ten miles (little over 110lbs) and was a lot better than my tenzing with 20lbs in it. I'll never own another pack.

    Crossbows - CenterPoint Any Good?

    Here in New Mexico we can use crossbows during the muzzleloader season so we picked up a Raven R10. Pretty accurate out to 100 yards. The specs say it's accurate to 200 yards but i wouldn't shoot at an animal at the distance. Really easy to use and has a built in crank so anyone can load it. You...

    2018 OIL Oryx

    I got lucky and drew the Iraq/Afghanistan returning veterans Oryx tag in NM. My wife had the idea of incorporating my service in the taxidermy somehow. I'd say she made a good call! Mountain Legends Taxidermy in Belen, NM did a phenomenal job. We will cherish this mount forever!
