Well,finally got online and just what I expected,no antelope tag. PB,that is true. Now I've got to figure out which rifles will be going on these hunts.

I went one out of six drawing my third choice deer. I guess it's time to get the boat ready for fishing

Maybe even Tinyman can draw one of those javelina tags. I tried putting in for the Jav tag this year, but remember I tried it after 5 PM (or whatever time it closes) on the last day? That sucked. So far, I am 1 for 9 tags...but still have Montana, Wyoming and Idaho to hope for.

Rats - was all ready to get back into the big flow this year, but ZERO on elk, antelope, oryx, and barbary sheep. So, the one drawn will have to be great - mule deer.

Afternoon folks. Hope your day is going as well as mine has been. I got great news this morning when I found out that I drew a McGreagor Range Oryx tag and a primitive muzzleloader tag in unit 9.
The news got even better though. When i logged onto my wife's account it was GREEEN. Fra Cristobal mountains DESERT BIGHORN SHEEP, a Valles Caldera first rifle cow hunt and a unit 38 Rifle tag.
I'm without words on how excited I am to be able to chase sheep with her. Since we have 2 month old baby Cullen in the house, my mother is going to fly out for the sheep hunt. The elk and deer hunts may just be a weekend ride in the truck.
I'm still tingling from the excitement. New Mexico truly has the best system in the west.

Rifle antelope in the VLA area (!!), 2nd rifle elk in 52. M/L deer in 29. Depending on what ranch you get assigned to, that pronghorn hunt has the potential to give you the buck of several lifetimes. Way better than any CO tag that you could be chasing. -Jon
