I'm considering a guide for NM this year to up my odds of drawing a good tag.  I have a buddy who wants to go and since NM is a no point state, I'm considering this option.  Would like to hunt the Gila or similar quality unit.  Have a friend that went rifle with Beaverhead Outfitters last year and did well.  Any advice?

Julian,

Although I haven't hunted elk with him Tom Klumpker would be a good choice.

I sent you a PM with a few more details.

Thanks for that link Jack, I just bookmarked them.

Trey Weckman did a drop camp with one day of guiding for me and Whip and two other guys last year. Worked out great. Contact through..

I'm going back with a different group of friends with their preferred outfitter, Rob Degner. They've had good luck in the past. Better hurry as most slots  are spoken for way in advance.

Beach.....you may have saved the day.  Thank you so much for the reference.  Trey thanks you too!
