NEW MEXICO – Should You Apply and More About The Outfitter Pool

This week I have a different show for you.  I start things off talking about why I think New Mexico is a good state for Non-Residents to apply in and also touch on some points that could discourage you.  I also have a guest Ryan Gentry from Black Horn Guide Service to talk about the outfitter pool and how that works.  Finally, I brought back last year’s show with New Mexico Department of Game and Fish.  We covered so much in that show and since there wasn’t major changes this year, I wanted to reshare it.  The 2023 show was with two members of New Mexico Department of Game & Fish, Nicole Tatman and Chad Nelson. We sat down at NMDGF headquarters to discuss a lot of topics.  We go through the new items in the regulation this year as well as important dates and reminders to remember. If you’re interested in hunting in New Mexico this is the show for you!

How to Interpret Hunting Regulations – Chad Ryker

This week I talk about hunting regulations, how to use them, and why are they important.  Every state has a different regulation, and each state has wildly different rules.  Understanding what you should look at and what you need to be aware of in a regulation can increase your odds of success in a state.  It can increase your aware of new rules that can impact your application or hunt.  Regulations offer so much information to help you with tour hunt.  Keep in mind, all of the information in a regulation is valuable and important I cover what I look for up front to help me with application to draw a tag or a hunt after I draw a tag.
