    Unit 45 New Mexico

    I’ve found a drainage with burn on the east side and not on the west. If I sit on the west and glass the burn will there be visibility into it? That would be more appealing for rifle

    Unit 45 New Mexico

    That’s good info I appreciate that. I have wondered how effective glassing will be because it’s so thick and big country. I guess I’ll just see what I get into!

    Unit 45 New Mexico

    I like that approach and what I intend to do. Lots of glassing in hopes to catch one going from food to bedding. I’ll update the group after my hunt for sure

    Unit 45 New Mexico

    That’s good to know man. Some of those drainages are a mile wide peak to peak! Big intimidating country for sure. I’m excited. Most likely going rifle for that reason

    Backcountry hunting mentor

    That’s good info man. I plan to glass open areas daylight and evening but really not sure what to do during the day. Just hustle I guess? I planned on only taking a cow call honestly. Bad idea? Didn’t figure a bugle tube necessary that late. Glad to hear you enjoy hunting them that time of year...
