    The worst 24 Season of my 60 years Elk hunting NM

    LOL we were 12 miles in and I elected not to ruin my kids hunt of once in a lifetime. Even though not smart and having a mild concussion I sat in camp for 7 days then said I had enough, and the kid called for her to pull us out. 2 days later they showed up. I went straight to the DR when I got...

    The worst 24 Season of my 60 years Elk hunting NM

    Well, I was not going to hunt with her and knowing the country and killing elk are two different things, but both works together. And from the guys I soke with said she liked sitting nm a horse more than sitting water or hiking the country as she would put 20 miles a day on her horses, and we...

    Sorry for that as I'm 77 and English was not my subject but sorry if you can't understand it. Just best to say I have killed more than my share of Bulls and some good ones. My elk hunting is over, and I can enjoy my Salmon fishing and Duck and goose hunting.

    The worst 24 Season of my 60 years Elk hunting NM

    the creek was about 100 yrds long and we were sitting right on the creek. If you think elk were going to come to that creek for a drink u have rocks in your head plenty of them. Cant anyone would say something that stupid. Do you hunt or just someone trying to disagree with something stupid that...

    The worst 24 Season of my 60 years Elk hunting NM

    here is what she indicated after the horse fell and I had enough sense to understand her the son and I were to heavy for her horses. I said if you thought that than why in the hell did you take us in. It was the first long ride those horses had and 14 miles out of shape is not a good thing she...

    The worst 24 Season of my 60 years Elk hunting NM

    I did check the references as many said she does know the wilderness well but did not get them into elk either. But we didn't need her for that as we did a drop and up to us to locate elk. But when your dropped right in the middle of water and water being 3-5 miles from the water, we were on...

    Before Elk Hunting with a Guide/Outfitter In NM>

    From good experience After I Add my opinion you can do as you may. First Never ever pay that guide /outfitter prior to you hunt and have everything in writing. The area your hunting in. that that outfitter will be with you not someone who doesn't know the country inside and out. How reputable...

    Early season elk hunt dates vs full moon

    Understood, I seem to always hunt the dark moon. We drew a 16B NM archery tag and have a dark moon for the first 8 days then the last 6 slowly moves to a quarter moon. They are out a little later in the morning and come out a little earlier in the evening. So, we have them on their feet a little...

    Early season elk hunt dates vs full moon

    Everyone has their opinion on the Rut. I will continue to say Bulls do not rut at the same time every year. My opinion. I have hunted the foothills outside a major Ranch that hold a couple hundred head each year. Those bulls within that herd stay together Bachelor'd up as the cows and calves are...

    Early season elk hunt dates vs full moon

    The Idea that elk Rutt at this same time every year is ridiculous. Weather has a lot to do with it. cooler than the norm, wet drives those bull. The scent of a cows coming into estrus stands out much greater when it's cooler & wetter. She does not come in every year at the exact time. Thats why...
