Good afternoon GS--
Please help me out, I am a novice at the Western hunts and applying for a tag in general. I've got a couple buddies that are new at it as well and looking to go on our first DIY hunt. From reading posts on here I've already learned that I need to become a member of GoHunt--Check. I've spent several hours picking through the website and by this point have an OK understanding of Arizona and NM.
My Question--
This will be my very first DIY hunt, I've grown up on land in East Texas and on and off having leases and ranches available to hunt for WT and Mule deer in Texas. What advice do you have for a newcomer that knows not the first step? What species, state, (maybe even unit) would you recommend to a newbie to go and get his feet wet to have a good experience--if nothing else, learn a lot in the process. I've spent the last couple of years acquiring good glass as I hunt a company owned ranch that is a little over 100k acres out in Pecos county, but what else?
Any and all advice is greatly welcomed, thanks GS!
