Congrats! Where are you and your son from?

Don't know him - are you guys hunting the San Mateos or Magdalenas?

Which hunt in 17 (my backyard), Charles?

It turns out the oryx hunt I saw on the backdoor was a February badged hunt, in what is probably the last year they do badged hunts, so I'm going to make this one count. Christmas in April!

That would be beyond awesome to get an oryx Euro mount like that, but the meat is so out of this world that it's my main focus.

I was just referring to last week's back door that closed after being up for a day or so. The one referred to in the first post of this thread. It didn't show me any elk love (but some for oryx and deer, fingers crossed).

I dunno, you wouldn't want your friend to go to waste! Hours away from confirming I got skunked on elk again (backdoor)...

This was working for me earlier (I drew 2 of my 5 hunts) but now it is blank, so your mileage will vary. I don't know if that is because it only works for a little bit, the one time you visit, or if they just plain fixed it and now you can't tell.

I've been doing squats but it sounds like I should be loading up the backpack instead! In my case my hunt is not backpacking but I'm hoping to help a buddy haul out some elk meat on his hunt in rough country.

Yep, the drawing proved me wrong despite a game and fish guy specifically telling me it would be delayed. Where did you get?

Welcome to the forum. You'll find most guys here hunt rifle so I hope you get some feedback but I wouldn't expect a bunch of good archery tactics. Which unit are you going to be hunting? Just curious as I'm in NM too, but hopefully hunting rifle or ML in unit 17 or around there. My...

FYI NM hunters, because of the Terk ruling (affected ibex, oryx, and b. sheep quotas) NM G&F is delaying ALL big game draw results by a week until the 30th.

Red Sparky is right on. I'm a NM guy but just getting into hunting and everyone who has helped me has said the same thing. I helped a buddy on a cow hunt in 16D and plan to keep putting in for 17 since I live there (but it is only bow or muzzleloader.) Unless you have the bucks for private...

For sale - Vortex Digital Camera Adaptor. It has been gently used since I picked it up a month ago to try on my viper HD, but it might have a few scratches. I never could get it to quite work with my point & shoot and probably need their other adaptor designed specifically for point & shoot...
