    COW TAGS SUCK!!!

    You know what they say when you have a cow tag in hand. Me and my buddy saw/called in 4 bulls in two days, the smallest a 5x5 and a MONSTER 6x6, both those bulls were 25 yds or less. At least we found elk in a new area and had a great \"hunt\", just no cows.

    NM choice unit

    With the draw the way it is in NM, I thought I\'d shoot the moon with plans of hunting WY or CO. So if I get drawn, it should be a premium unit. For those familiar with the Gila, does it really make a difference or do you have a favorite?
