The Great Wyoming Checkerboard Belt
The following is from 2013 out of the Colorado BLM office. Not sure if it is still applicable or not "It is illegal to cross public land at corners. Some areas in the West are “checker-boarded” with public and private lands, or otherwise have sections of public land that are difficult to...- NMGuy

NM travel restrictions, negative test rule gone
It should also be noted that Covid-19 is not an adequate reason for NMGF to issue a refund on an out-of-state license. My buddy can't make his deer hunt due to various Covid-19 restrictions in NM and his home state of NY. He called NMGF and was told the only options he has are to come hunt or...- NMGuy

NM travel restrictions, negative test rule gone
It seems NMGF is giving contradictory answers depending on who you call. I haven't heard of any enforcement of the restriction, nor is there much clarification regarding how these restrictions apply to hunters. With that said, if you look at the travel restriction language, it says...- NMGuy

Another box is checked
Dang, I was hoping I could save you from getting your brain poked but I guess I was late to the party. Good luck in NM! -

Another box is checked
Just a heads up Randy, I saw on one of your Social Media accounts that you cut the Colorado hunt short to get a Covid test to get into NM for another hunt. I just got an email at work that says the current Public Health Orders are being revised effective 10/16. Regarding travel, the email I... -

Disposable TV's
Don't forget to take about 37 glass bottles, a refrigerator, a twin mattress and at least 3 propane tanks! Target variety is important when shooting at the local pit- NMGuy

Knee braces, compression sleeves, bands, anyone using one or a pair tell me about them.
I used to use a basic neoprene sleeve type brace and it worked pretty well until my knee problems got to the point the compression on my kneecap causes more pain than relief. I stopped using the knee brace after I started working out. Losing weight and strengthening my leg muscles did more...- NMGuy

Hunting Slang
I've never heard anyone else use it, but to be honest I don't generally hunt with others.- NMGuy

If you could go back to age 25
At 25 I was three years into a state government career with a fairly bright outlook. Had been married for three years and had no kids. What would I change? 1. Hunt more. At 25 I hadn't started hunting elk yet. About the only thing I did was go out to shoot a deer each year, but I wasn't...- NMGuy

Hunting Slang
My dad always referred to shooting quail on the ground as "shady grady". I'm not sure where that one comes from, and a quick google search didn't shed any light on it.- NMGuy

Who's watching you?
You have a smart phone or an Alexa or any similar device? If so, it's always listening. If your smart phone is attached to any of your accounts (email, social media, etc.), they get linked somehow. Even if you turn on privacy settings, it's still listening. My wife and I both have this...- NMGuy

Is it worth it?
My advice is to step down. If you're noticing the burnout, I'd almost guarantee your family and your coworkers have noticed it too. I was in almost the same situation a few years ago. I worked my way up to a job in management in state government and did that for almost three years. It was...- NMGuy

Tell me about your favorite socks
I started with bamboo socks, which work fairly well. My feet sweat a lot though, so I made the switch to some SmartWool socks with a liner. Those seem to keep my feet dry better than the bamboo, but I recently picked up some Darn Tough 2011 and they've been great so far. My buddy got some...- NMGuy

NM Quarantine Question
I'll echo what Hank said. Fly in, and get out (same advice I give to all Texans to be honest, lol) and be nice. We do have a mask order in effect that is punishable by a fine, which some areas take more seriously than others. If you wear a mask and only stop if/when necessary, you'll be fine...- NMGuy

Re-verify Broadhead Tune Mid-Season?
I'm with Golfer on this. Confidence is critical in bow hunting, so if you aren't confident, re-checking things won't hurt. If you're going to be out in the field anyway, why not just take a target with you to save you the trip to the range? If your field points are still flying the same out... -

Looking at buying a Pistol
Advantage of a semi-auto is the increased capacity and speed to reload. Would you rather have 5 rounds to put into a home intruder, or 18? That said, many people believe a revolver is more reliable since there are fewer moving parts. I'll echo what's already been said, which is that it is...
