    New Mexico Unit 34 Elk Questions

    I called NMGF last year for unit 34. The local office said they hadn't had a confirmed case in almost 10 years. She also said they didn't offer testing sites during archery seasons and had something to do with a combination of staffing and supply issues. Could contact them and see if it...

    Side Hustle Ideas Needed

    If there is demand in your area, you could look into starting a sharpening business doing scissors and clipper blades. Up front cost isn't terrible (~$3-4k last I checked). I did it for about 10 years and based on my prices it came out to $40-70 per hour depending on what the order consisted...

    Diet and Nutrition

    Find an eating style that works for you. Diets are short term tools, you need a lifestyle you can live with. Keto works if you can tolerate it. Paleo works if you can tolerate it. Hell, I lost weight eating ice cream every night, but I was fat enough (and disciplined enough the rest of the...

    Privatization kills both Resident and Nonresident DIY hunting opportunity

    At what point does a license price increase negatively impact the " hunters of average means" that the OP posted about? There is already a bill in this session to raise the price of hunting licenses because NMGF is underfunded. If we remove ePLUS licenses, there is a large chunk of lost...

    Privatization kills both Resident and Nonresident DIY hunting opportunity

    From NMGF website: "Landowners who selected the unit-wide hunting option on their EPLUS agreement and received a unit-wide authorization(s) for the current license year agree to allow public elk hunting access on their private ranch. Hunters who possess a public draw elk license or a...

    NM draw is open.

    I look forward to not drawing antelope for the 15th consecutive year. I'll play the odds on deer/elk and throw in some high(er) chance 3rd choices so we'll see what lady luck has to say this year. Hopefully I didn't burn all my luck last year.

    Draw Question

    If you're only applying for antelope I'd pass on NM because the odds are too low. Last year saw an estimated 8,000 non-residents applying for 98 tags. That said, the change to muzzleloader rules this year makes them a bit of a wild card (if people actually pay attention to the rule change...
