[QUOTE="jlvandersnick, post: 1901237, member: 40932"] I don't really have a feel for the type of hunts your talking about so I'll tell you a little bit about the type of hunt I'm looking for. Then you can tell me if they are the type of hunts that your putting together. I've hunted goat in NM three times and elk last year. Having killed over 15 goats in my life, I'm to the point where I am strickly a trophy hunter. My last goat scored 92 SCI. My last 4 all scored over 84 1/2 B&C. The best goats in NM GENRALLY come off of private land. I'm the same with Elk. I have passed on a minimum of 5 different 350 plus bulls in three different states (WY, AR, NM), in an effort to kill one over 380. When I say passed, these are all bulls that I could have killed. I've hunted some of the best trophy units in the west for a total of 24 days on those trophy units....still no 380 bull. I've been applying for tags and building preference and/or bonus points in ALL of the western states that offer them. I've been doing this for over 20 years. I have as many as 21 points in some states for different species. Every year I apply for a minimum of 40 different tags in eight different states. I draw a tag about ever other year. Reminder, I am only applying for the best tags on the best units in the best states. [/QUOTE]
