NEW MEXICO ARCHERY ARIZONA
MUZZLELOADER RIFLE
If
you want a big bull, first you need to apply for the Draw..
New Mexico and Arizona are home to the some of the largest big game animals in
the world. With the strict draw regulations combined with the genetics, the areas that we are permitted to hunt in produce
record book animals year after year.
NEW MEXICO
In New Mexico there are two ways to obtain tags. Either through the public draw or by land owner
purchase. The odds of drawing a public draw elk tag is around 7-10% if you are applying on your own. If you sign a contract
to hunt with with an outfitter you are put into a seperate draw pool with higher odds of drawing a tag. The odds
of drawing in the outfitter pool increases to 20-30% and sometimes higher depending on your weapon choice, unit,
and species. You can apply up to four people in a party in New Mexico. If one draws then everyone draws.
We hunt the South West portion of New Mexico in the Gila and Cibola National Forests and BLM land.
Our hunts are conducted in units 16A,16B,16C,16D,16E as well as the surrounding primitive weapons units 13, 15, 17 and Rifle
unit 21A. We also hunt unit 10 for deer only.
There is a wide variety of terrain in these units ranging from steep
rocky canyons and pine forests to miles of flat land with thick cedars and pinon trees and elevations ranging
from 7,500 ft.-10,000ft. Hunting for a real trophy can be
very demanding. It is best to be in the best physical condition you can at the time of your hunt. METHODS of hunting for archery elk include spot and stalk,
calling, setting up stands over water or wallows, and still hunting through timber. Rifle hunting methods include spot and stalk, still hunting, and stands over water.

High chance for opportunity on mature public land bulls.
In Arizona we are permitted state wide and hunt many of
the elk and deer units but we do have our favorites. We hunt the central and eastern portion of the state for elk, southern
units for Coues deer, and northern and central units for Mule deer. Obtaining a tag in Arizona is extremely difficult for
most species. The tags are available by drawing only. Arizona is a preference point state so the more points you build up
the better your chances of drawing a tag.
Arizona has a wide variety of terrain ranging from flat pine forests
with no under brush to steep rugged canyons filled with brush and cactus. During the rifle seasons expect to hunt the rough
canyons looking for big Bulls. Elevations will range from 6,800 ft. - 8,500 ft.
