Good afternoon Elk Hunters. Well I was anticipating applying for the New Mexico elk tag this year but a couple of the guys that I hunt with are not going to be able to apply with me so we decided to wait until 2019 which is ok with me. We have hunted NM before, archery that is but this time we are looking for a firearm season. I myself want to branch out and see what is out there. Mainly something that is more guaranteed as far as acquiring a tag. Now we do plan to use an outfitter like we did in NM and he does have private land tags that are guaranteed but one of the guys said he doesn’t want to spend that much on a hunt. I know, by now you are probably thinking I should ditch that guy and just apply anyways but we have been hunting together for a long time and he is in 60s and more than likely this will be his last trip for big game so I would like to be a part of that. So I am asking all of you that have hunted elk in other states and have used outfitters who would you recommend and why? Thanks for your info
