It reduces the opportunity for outfitters but increases opportunity for DIY resident and nonresident hunters. Being a NM resident who despises the outfitter industry here in NM, I am standing and applauding. This gives a bigger draw pool to both nonresidents and residents and takes away some of...
Do not, under any circumstances, get your diesel high-centered while in the backcountry. And just in case you do, carry 2, 8000 lb come-alongs. Long story short, after high centering a 1999 F250 Powerstroke 4 miles deep and hiking out to get help, it took 2 full size trucks anchored to one...
I had an old 30-06 from the late 90's and decided to do the same thing. I went with a Magpul Hunter 700 stock and have been very happy with it. The accuracy at distance has increased dramatically.
I agree that rotational grazing would improve conditions for grasses. However, what I was specifically referring to was Forest ecosystem. The comment I initially responded to claimed that cows increase forest health. I do not agree with that statement, a forest does not need cows in order to be...
Hahaha Not asking you to "hold my hand". You should be able to site your own references after making claims. I've ready plenty of BS "studies", just asking you to provide one that might actually have some merit. But apparently you are unable to do so. Have a nice day.
How do you figure? The land has a carrying capacity that can only sustain so many animals. If cows are taking up a majority of that lands ability how can it sustain the native animal population? I'd really like to see this "proof" that running cows on forest land is "good for the forest". It's...
I personally don't think 8's are enough. I have a pair of 10's I use quite a bit and a pair of 12's I use for both free hand and tripod use (mostly tripod use).
You are correct sir.
The terminology the NMDGF uses always seems a little convoluted. Here's what their website states: "Residents who apply with one or more nonresidents will be issued a license only if there are licenses available for both the resident and nonresident pools."
I called the...
I have hunted this unit twice as a nonresident diy hunter. First season got a decent buck, second time filled the freezer with a couple doe. Both trips I ended up tagging out on BLM chunks off of Ross Rd. The BLM boundaries are usually unmarked so be sure to know where you are standing. Hunting...
