    NM sheep guide reccs?

    On the wild chance I drew an OIL sheep tag, I'd hire an outfitter, so I might as well get in the pool. Fees vary pretty dramatically and it seems like guys are either desert guys or rocky guys from what I've looked at. Who are some names to research? I was talking to one of arguably the top...

    Free ranging Nilgai on the Kennedy Ranch

    I drew nothing and spent most of the fall in court spending ten's of thousands of dollars in a custody battle with my son's monther. I needed something for the freezer and couldn't get enough time off to get out of state for a cow elk hunt. So I booked a Nilgai hunt on the Kennedy ranch on...

    Got my skull back.

    Probably the smallest buck anyone has ever shot, but 2012 spot and stalk. Trophy to me! Here's the hunt. We tried again in 2013, I got an arrow into one but it was a little far back and we found him the next day running around like nothing had happened...

    The high road or the low road?

    I'm going into an area the first and 2nd week of september. I can come in on the creek side at 8800ish feet and hunt up to 11,000 OR I can go up and around on the top of the ridge and hunt down, then climb up at the end of the day. Its 2 to 4 miles from the top to the bottom and I can get an...

    ELK OTC tag question

    I'm sure this is a dumb question, but I've not had an OTC colorado archery elk tag before. Do you have to designate a unit its good for when you buy it or is it good for any OTC unit and you can move around? Reason I ask is I have a bear tag, going the first week, if I fill early I may want to...

    Did some scouting

    Covered 40 wilderness miles ranging from 8700 to 12100 and back over the 4th in 3 days in Southern Co. We was whupped when we got done, went in with a 50 lb pack, planned to stay longer. 4 days is pushing the limits of a badlands 2200 for sure. Found some phenomenal elk habitat, but its 5...

    Fitness training updates!

    I thought it would be good to get another thread going with what everyone is doing, what is working great, what you are struggling with, etc. I just did 71 min 18 sec, 48.8 lb pack, double stairs, 1100 vertical ft ascent descent, 8.5 story stairwell. I need to cut 11 min off that, but I...

    Unit map site

    So - this site has a lot of the same info in the MRS for Wyoming, and they cover all the units. So if you are curious about a unit the MRS does not cover check it out, just general info, no tips, but I gather they sell maps for some units. http://diyhuntingmaps.com/

    Favorite 5 pin site?

    I am wanting to upgrade my extreme archery 4 pin site. My shooting has gotten better and I've taken to bowhunting antelope spot and stalk and that REALLY can make you stretch your range. So what is everyone using? I bought a new drenalin 5 years ago and haven't changed anything since except...

    Nm wolves

    And they are chewing up elk in 15 too. USFWS Southwest Region 7 hours ago During the last week of November 2012, the US Fish and Wildlife Service documented all radio-collared wolves in the Fox Mountain pack feeding on an elk together. Also, on November 28, 2012, we obtained a visual on the Fox...
