New Mexico 26 Draw Results

[WRO]

Undoubtedly! I go for the rifle UW hunts that don’t cost an arm and a leg. In it for the meat. I can get a tag for about the cost of drawing a NR CO archery es tag.

There’s a very short list of people I’ll buy tags from in nm.

A lot of guys sell tags that they don’t have a guarantee on.

Meaning they don't actually have the tag to sell, or they're selling a landowner tag for land that has no elk?

Both, typically on uw tags they don’t have them. Most of the time they’re sold before the tags are drawn.

Some of the RO are very small and the elk aren’t there all the time.

True.
Beware, that Tag market in NM is the Wild West.

I bought a tag a few years ago from a "Tag Broker/ Hunt consultant", I had bought a tag from previously with no problems, paid him up front and after calling and calling a month before the hunt with no response....I finally got a call the evening before the opener that my tag was sold out from under him and I was out of luck.

The story I got later was that he and the LO had a handshake agreement and the LO sold the tag for $2,000 more right out from under the broker. FYI, it can be a backstabbing highest bidder market.


The Broker made it right and I got my money back....so I don't want to trash him here but I've heard some horror stories where guys showed up to the hunt and they were hung out to dry, Tags with fake codes, etc. Wild West buyer beware.

I’ve only bought UW LO vouchers from Keith Williams, sw big game brokerage he’s always been good to deal with, straight shooter.

I’ve heard your same story a few times, the good ones are worth it..
