Public land in NM????????
Hey guys, I have been doing some scouting, but finding alot of private land. Want to find some deer area with public access, no motorized areas are good. Thanks if you can throw a guy a bone. Good shooting!

RE: Public land in NM????????
There is probably more public land here than there is private. What part of the state are ya looking in?

I have hunted NM as a non-res and understand. There is a map that shows private land in white and public in green and I think it's a BLM map. It is a real checkerboard and you need to be very careful to study and understand boundaries but there is a lot of good public hunting land. Watch out for jerk outfitters(not all outfitters) who will try to tell you public land is private to get rid of you. Keep the map on you at all times so you can stand your ground if this happens. Good hunting.

I Live in NM and one of the comments is correct, rher is more Public land than private. If you go to units 16 (all, there are 4) and 15B, unit 37 Capitan, unit 17 South, unit 13 (Bear Mnts). This should get you started, good luck. Don`t forget, scout on the off season.
