I have got to get my application in ASAP and have never done it before. I have read the NMGF several times and I can't figure out what I HAVE to fill out/apply for and what I don't have to fill out/apply for. I already have a CIN from when I purchased a landowner tag, but have never put in for the draw. Can anyone give me a simple explanation of what particular links/applications I need to complete my draw application? I thought NMGF only hit you for about a $20-$25 fee when you applied and then refunded part of it if you didn't draw. From what I am reading they hit you for the full $600 and then refund the $575-$580 if you don't draw (which one is correct?)

I put in last week.

You need the hunt list for the specific unit/date/weapon code for each of your choices.

That can be found from a link on the NMGF website (hunting). Then you just go in to "purchase" a license and you will have to buy your license for 65 or 75 with habitat stamps.(select refund option on this or you will buy a license even if you do not draw) You then go in and make your hunt choices. You will get hit for 855 total unless you select standard quality choices and then your total charge will be ~200 less I think. This is all refunded to you if you do not draw minus the $20 fee for non res application...

PM me if you have questions

If you do it this way just make sure your outfitter meets his requirements, if not you are on the hook for the citation. I heard there was one doing it in that area that was not spending his alloted time with the hunters that F&G was keeping tabs on.
