Congratulations to all those that pulled tags. And good luck on your hunts. I got a red bar instead of an Oryx tag.

New Mexico was good to me this year, elk and deer. Arizona was good to me this year as I drew late bull elk tag.

Kick him in the crotch for me. Your wife did pretty good, congrats. Cow for me. Oryx and antelope for my wife.
Scott, they drew another desert right next to me, feller I work with drew the peloncillos. Back to back with an OIL ibex last year. Can’t believe it. I cussed him pretty good and he just smiled and laughed!

Going to be interesting to see in a couple years how the odds shake out on ML hunts. Nothing but a late bull hunt for me. 23 muzzie to be specific. Crappy deer tag but I'll backpack in somewhere remote and see what happens.... I bet the odds were a bit better this year and maybe next but will even out...

We (wife and I) had mixed results. She drew a cow tag and I got an antlered deer license. We have been fortunate this after some on and off years of wishing and hoping that we would be allowed to hunt nearby.

Still no oryx hunts for my wife and I.
Still mending up from back fusion, I'm not doing any deer or elk hunts yet.
Oryx, we can drive right up to it.

Hope you are doing good Amigo. Thanks fellas. I’m the lucky one, they’re amazing people and it was a treat to be able to hunt with them. I hope their boys have a great season!
