RE: Anyone from New Mexico?
Even if a rancher has a lease on BLM land it is still public land that you can hunt without asking. Now say you stay on the ranchers good side and go ask or at least talk with him, he may tell you where the big one is or even let you in on some privet land at no charge.
New Mexico land owners are a little different in that a lot of them dont wont any wildlife on their land, it takes away from their livestock.
