This is 12 years now and still no lope tag for NM! Congrats brother one of these days!!

Hey, I understand it's hard to draw.

I was hunting the ranch next to Rim Rock; were you guys in a white pickup? Saw one on the Rim Rock border. Passed on about five before I shot this one. The left measured 17.5"; the right tip was broken off but still measured 16.5."

The terrain and vegetation does make it very difficult to range animals. I love my SIG, but I do wish the beam divergence was a bit tighter. The problem in this particular area is that it is extremely flat and invariably there is a lot of vegetation poking up (cactus, grass, etc).

Shot this one on opening morning after a very long sit waiting for him to stand at about 440yds

Rest of the goats from The Mountain Project and Bear Hyde Cases crew, all shot opening day on same ranch.

NM changed the rules recently and now allow private landowners to set their own quota. I hope they don't end up shooting too many. All of these ranches are large, but some are huge, so I don't really know. I know I was the only one hunting on my ranch, and the other guy hunting with my outfitter was the only guy on his ranch (2x1 hunt however).

Could have been us, but there were several white trucks on that ranch.
