Red Rabbit Report post Posted June 23, 2006 Jake, Welcome to CWT. There was a thread about two years ago about 23. A search should find it. I hunted the south side of Brushy, but so did a lot of others. Saw a few coues, but more muleys. RR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest AZ>NMcouesaddict Report post Posted July 4, 2006 Although not as good as the neighboring units 23 still has very big bulls and some country that very few folks hunt. I know guys that hunt that every year and call in bulls like they've never been called to before. On my many trips from Reserve to Silver City, I see bulls all the way down to Glenwood just off the highway. The better spots require some hiking but it's well worth it. Let me know if you see any good coues deer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WFGinNM Report post Posted July 7, 2006 105Coues, I've hunted the northern part a few times and have never seen any elk. I have see mulies, coues, bighorn, javies, and coatimundi. Just not any elk. The few times I was down there I had no idea how to hunt coues, I would walk and glass and probably spooked more than I saw I'm sure. I drew the first rifle hunt this year and plan on doing some more scouting and a bunch more glassing. Good luck, --Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
