    16C 2nd Archery

    Have hunted that unit several times on bow hunts. Have had some decent chances but was unable to get a shot off. Have been on rifle hunts the past 2 yrs. and again this year with friends. 2 yrs ago my friends son took a nice 6x6 45 mins into his hunt. Guess would be a 320 bull. Last year...

    16A and 16C New Mexico elk

    Have been on hunts in 16c past 2 seasons with a friends son. He drew 16c again this year for third year in a row. 2 yrs ago he took a nice 6x6 30 mins into the hunt. Last year was hot and dry, had seen plenty of elk but not to many shooters. Most water holes in 16c will tend to have a lot of...

    New Mexico Unit 18, 36, 37, and 38

    Be sure to check your license. It should be valid for 1 unit only. You should have selected a unit when you applied for your hunt. For the archery hunts they don't assign you to a ranch.

    Have a hunt this next week also. Scouted in early September. Very green, but not very much water around. Ground was hard and dry. They have had some rain since then. Talked to a friend who was up there 2 weeks ago. About the same as early September. Weather should be warm with cool...

    Water won't be a problem, up there last weekend and the area is getting some rain. Not enough yet but by the 1st hunt should be much better.

    Mexico drug cartels threaten US

    2 signs were done in El Paso by some kid from Las Vegas to prove a point. No one knows what that point is yet.

    It is very possible to get a bull in that range. It will all depend on the weather. Try starting around the Wall lake area. Most people dont like that area, but have seen some nice bulls in that area. Roads are good in that area and easy to get around. What type of vehicles will you be using?

    16c new mexico

    Have hunted that unit for a number of years. Hunted last year on rifle hunt. Weather will be the biggest factor, it has been very warm and dry for the past 5 or 6 years. There are some big bulls in that area. 2 yrs. ago had an archery permit for last hunt saw 1 big bull but that was it...

    WSMR for Oryx, baby!!!!

    you will have a great time. Weather is great at that time of year. Really do not need a guide. You can get a shot less than a 100 yards if you take your time. Have been on 4 Rhodes hunts with friends and one for myself. I would take a third person just to help getting your Oryx back to your...

    New mexico unit 34

    You drew a good unit. I have hunted that unit for turkey for past 25 years. Have seen some good elk there. You can count on seeing some nice 6x6 and some bigger 5x5. The unit has plenty of access and plenty of people depending on which hunt you drew.

    New Mexico Elk

    I am a member of a couple of hunting organizations in southern NM. Our feeling on S B 196 is to have the 90-10 split and have 10% going to NR and leaving the Outfitters out of the deal all together. If someone wants to hire an outfitter they are more than welcome to after they draw a permit...

    Merriams in NM 2011

    I have hunted in the area for the last 22 years. It has the largest population of turkeys in the state. It also has the most hunters in the state. It is a very good place to hunt turkey if you know where to go. Unit has a lot of roads and lots of access. I would try to avoid hunting on the...

    oryx in NM

    They are all free range animals. There is a fence around White sands monument but only to keep the oryx out and not in. For the past few years they have been trying to control the numbers by increased hunts. The military wants to keep the numbers to about 2000 on the range. Oryx can become...

    oryx in NM

    With an on range hunt you really don't need a guide to have a succesful hunt. I have been on 1 hunt for myself and 5 others with friends, and we have never had a hunt we did not get an Oryx. I have hunted off range also and they are much harder to locate the animals. If you put in the time...
