New Mexico Hunting Resources & Outfitters

NM Outfitters

The trophy genetics of the elk population in southwestern New Mexico makes hunting in and around the areas of Magdalena, Datil, Pie Town, and Quemado, an exceptional experience.

Archery elk season takes place in September when the bulls are typically in the rut and numerous record book bulls have been taken in both the Catron and Socorro County areas.  Muzzleloader and rifle seasons for elk primarily take place in October and Safari Club International's number one typical elk was taken south of Magdalena in Socorro County.
