[QUOTE="1100 Remington Man, post: 1178071, member: 29824"] Well I applied for a tag in New Mexico unit 32 because my Best Friend has always wanted to hunt them. We settled on this Unit because of the public land available. We have done a lot of Western Hunting and all DIY hunting. In hunting Western States we will scout out places for our next hunt some times for different species but this will be different as I never have been to New Mexico. Any and all advice appreciated ! I am planning on using my .264 Win Mag with Nosler's 120gr BT as it has worked on Mule Deer & Antelope I hope it works on Aoudad or should I use a bigger bullet 130 or 140gr ? As I have no idea how tough they are. Should I plan on hunting out of a Base camp or should it be a back pack hunt ? In CO, ID and MT & WY I have put in between 8-12 miles a day hiking according to my GPS in moderate MT to rough country ID. What type of country do they like the Ridges or what is there preferred habitat ? I will say when I got done filling out the application, I just started to laughing thinking what has my Best Friend gotten me into. The season is in Febuary is it better to be there on opening day or better later in the season ? Thanks and my your next season be Great. [/QUOTE]
