New Mexico Draw Deadline Approaching (Mar. 21st)
I can't add the license to my cart. I opted for the refund on the hunting license if not drawn, but one of my deer choices was an almost guaranteed draw.- El Serio

New Mexico Draw Deadline Approaching (Mar. 21st)
I think they're just holding the results as a favor to Nevada. It was obvious that Nevada didn't like the early NM results last year. This year they sent out postcards offering drawing entries for Vortex optics to incentivize early applications.- El Serio

New Mexico Draw Deadline Approaching (Mar. 21st)
In the past the harvest reporting was a "backdoor" way to see your results early. If a harvest report showed up in your account you knew that you drew a tag. Once that was known New Mexico started closing down the harvest report presumably to prevent people from seeing results early...- El Serio

The Best Hunting Video I Have Ever Seen
I just ran across a video by Nate Simmons about his father's last elk hunt. Current count on YouTube shows only 4719 views. I have never seen a better hunting video. Here is a link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-ausfJgP0o- El Serio

The bighorn sheep small odds got me thinking. What tags have you had <1% odds?
Only tag I have ever drawn with less than 1% odds was a NM rifle antelope. The ranch assignment wasn't very good though. No big bucks to be found, but I still had fun.- El Serio

Your Favorite Outdoor Authors?
My all-time favorite is Jack O'Connor, even though he died before I was born. I have read many of his books and severak of my species and location interests find their origins in his writings. Another favorite of mine is Dwight Schuh; I feel he is underappreciated because he is a bowhunting...- El Serio

30 years old, dreamin of big horns...what options?
I have considered this at length, and I don't think accruing points is a viable path to getting a bighorn tag, unless you are a resident of the state and start buying them as a young child with a family history of incredible health so you can outlive the competition and still hunt in your...- El Serio

Eastman's MRS
The print in the tables is pretty tiny. I never read the Montana Deer and Elk section because NR tags there are too rich for my blood. What information do you usually take issue with? For Utah, the most mystifying portion is the trophy quality column and the overall rating. I'm not sure how...- El Serio

New Mexico Antelope question
They do not assign ranches for archery hunts. I would imagine that ranch access is going to depend on where you are and who you know. I didn't try. The reason that the ranches allow access for the rifle seasons is because they have to in order to get landowner tags. I'm not sure that will... -

New Mexico? Ranch assingment
As stated by others, it is an unusual system. I have hunted there twice, once with a rifle and the other archery. On the rifle hunt my "ranch" assignment consisted of 86% public land. There were no really big bucks within the boundary, but at least there were only 2 other hunters. For the...
