What is it about the Gila country of New Mexico?

[Wheels]

I started hunting in 16B back in the late ‘80’s before it was hardly on the map, and could draw a NR tag just about every year until the USO lawsuit in the early 2000’s. Have only drawn 2 times since then, but that place is(or was) magical. Was nothing to see several bulls over 350” during the hunt. I’m starting to think I’m getting too old now to run those mountains in the wilderness area now, but keep applying.

Weird question, are there Mearns quail in the gila?

Yes....

I bump quail in there every time.
