I’ll be taking this year off of trying for a Gila tag.

Here goes for a sea of red pry...

I really have no time to be out for weeks in ‘23-‘24. According to RANDOMIZED DRAW CONSTANT #2- He whom shalt be blessed with all green selections on years when ye hath no business hunting.

 

[utah400elk]

I have it on good authority that no NR tags will be drawn this year. They are being given back to state to go to Resident tag draws. Sorry. No need for any NRs to apply.

JK. Good luck to everybody…better luck to me and my son

 

[EYJONAS!]

I'm going in for the first time. Looking forward to it.

RANDOMIZED DRAW CONSTANT #1- The number is never drawn for those who do not enter.

I wonder how many guys who apply realize how low the actual odds are? I apply every year and even once drew a elk tag but fear likelyhood has dwindled even further with recent app increases. I think hunters watch all these youtube vids and see all these great hunts in NM and fail to realize that almost all those NR hunters purchase their tags, very few actually draw tags. Good luck to all you fellow applicants, i cant afford to buy my way in so call me old fashion..i apply

Here’s a humdinger: If we’re not drawn resident deer in NM, instead of nonresident deer CO; Ontario, CA? It’s cheaper because there is no justice in license prices.

Hunting licence (non-residents of Ontario)

As a non-resident of Ontario, before you can hunt in Ontario, you’ll need: an Outdoors Card hunter accreditation on file with the Fish and Wildlife Licensing Service all required hunting licences and tags for the game you wish to hunt A non-Ontario resident is a person whose primary residence is...

Funny. I seem to draw tags. I'm a resident.

 

[CowboyLeroy]

Don't even bother boys, I'm drawing everything.

 

[WildWill]

I'll be applying for elk, deer, antelope, turkey, and bear. I'm hopeful and also ready to handle disappointment got some practice with that in NM.

Have you already pulled your lifetime oryx?

Nah, that was on that list that rhymes with bucket that I lost.

 

[RobertD]

I believe I'll be putting in for some longshot tags this year for New Mexico, just for fun. I'm thinking rifle antelope for me, rifle antelope for my wife, and then something fun like sheep, oryx etc. Maybe a late archery mule deer hunt for good measure! I don't want to put in for anything that I can realistically draw and have to back out on when I draw a good Wyoming antelope tag in a few months. But at the same time, anytime you're in New Mexico is a good time... Good luck everybody, hope there's green chile in your future!

Then Valle Vidal elk. Robust herds and you’re in them sometimes within half mile of camp.
