New Mexico Elk Tag - Mail

[pitchin jigs]

Anybody receive their NM elk tag in the mail yet? I believe they should have mailed in late May.

I have not received mine yet.

I'm still waiting for my NM elk tag to arrive.

I have not received elk or deer yet either. They were supposed to start mailing them May 20th.

 

[butcherboy]

Yep, still waiting. Next year I’m going with all Etags.

My dad is still waiting on his NM elk tag to arrive.

What’s the hurry? You can’t start hunting elk until Sept 1 archery at the earliest.

Glad i went with my etag

It's gonna be awhile, we have several July oryx hunters haven't received their tags yet so that tells me the elk tags will be at least 2-4 weeks out. For what it's worth, spring turkey tags were mailed from an Illinois zip code so it looks like nm g&f has outsourced the tag printing and mailing

I have not gotten mine yet

Haven't received elk or deer. Called G&F last week and they said they were mailing Youth tags first and then all others after that.

Nothing wrong with checking to see if others have received their tags yet. The post office managed to lose my WY deer tag and my Colorado elk tag last year. I'd rather know there is a problem now than wait til the week before my hunt begins.

Switched to doing ETag's awhile ago.

I would imagine June offrange oryx hunters didn't have the option to do paper tags?

You can forget your paper tag at home, you will never forget your phone...

Last week, my account showed that my tag had been mailed. Anxiously waiting. My first tag in my first drawing. Unit 34, a dream hunt for me! I will use the E tag hereafter, now that I know how to make it work while out of cell service.

E tags are the only way to go..

I second this. Easy to use. Never going back. Only downside is no more satisfaction of notching a tag.

Even with Etag you still have to make a handwritten tag to put on carcass. Could cut some notches in that for nostalgia.

Premake a tag so I can notch it in the field. I like your thinking! Last year pulling out the sharpie just didn't feel the same.

Ya and it requires a lot more info then just you conformation number… oops

 

[Jethro]

I know this doesn’t help you guys, but I got my WY tag in today’s mail.
