New Mexico outfitter offers inexpensive hunt in Sand Hills country with excellen tag drawing odds

One of our outfitters offers an inexpensive guided hunt in the sand hills country of southeastern New Mexico. This hunt provides a good opportunity to take a buck in the 20 to 25-inch class. 2009 will be the fourth year permits have been issued by drawing in this zone, and the reduced hunting pressure promises to improve the trophy quality. Game department officers photographed some bucks in the 27 to 28-inch category this past winter. Some bucks over 180 were taken on this hunt in the past couple of years. A buck scoring 221 was poached by a bowhunter, who shot it with a rifle during the January archery season. The rifle hunts are in November. This hunt costs $1,800 a person with two hunters per guide, lodging and meals not included. Inexpensive motels are available, or you can camp. If you apply for this hunt through the outfitter, you're almost sure to draw a permit.

It's too late to apply for a tag in 2008. Book now for 2009.
