Looks like I will be hunting unit 52 for mule deer and bear. Anyone have any suggestions for unit 52? I have seen a really good bear and a really good mule deer in unit 52.

Musta got a landowner tag. Never been in the unit, but good luck, take lots of pictures and post the aftermath for us!

I believe a LO tag for deer would be ranch only and a bear tag would just be over the counter until the quota was filled.
I have seen some deer in unit 52 that were absolutely huge, find some feeding areas that are tucked away and surrounded by lots of thick forest

How did you find out. I went to the New Mexico game and fish and my account is still saying "pending".

Mine says pending also, but I saw a list that only had my third choice on it. I knew I was dreaming on the first and second so when only third choice was listed I just assumed. I may get disapointed again on june 8th.
Mrelite, you are spot on.

I hope you are right because I seen a list that showed only my second choice. Question for you, was your third choice the highest tag price you applied for? I applied for a standard hunt for choice #1, a high demand hunt for my second choice and a standard hunt for choice #3 and like I said I found a list that only shows my second choice hunt number. I assumed that it showed the hunt code have referenced the highest upfront fee paid, I hope I am wrong and drew my second choice, I would be a happy camper (and would be hunting a great New Mexico Elk unit too come October 22nd).
My third choice was a standard hunt, any legal weapon. This is not a high demand hunt and for good reason, there are not a lot of deer. I would expect to get drawn. It is my back yard.

Best of luck to all, the moment has arrived!!
No matter what I still get to hunt Oryx and there is a good chance I will get my deer tag which is a Sept and a January hunt this year, If I can get lucky and get a BHS or a Elk tag it sure would make the year spectacular.
