The Gila is a magical place! We actually had a storm rolling in on the first few days of the hunt and were waking up to temps in the high 40s! It was never too hot on this hunt thankfully!

Appreciate it Keith! Yeah, that one shot was full of a lot of disappointment but it was awesome at the same time!

Thanks for watching Drew!!!

There were a TON of antelope. We had a few pinned down from previous years and thankfully punched our tag on a target buck! Thanks for watching!

Thank you! We appreciate the support!!!

Meat, use of the cape, Predator control, the experience… the list goes on forever…

Thank you! The horns ended up being 39” long. I appreciate you for taking the time to watch!

@ I love to see hunts here in New Mexico. This is where I live so I like to congratulate everyone. All these animals are everybody’s.

We feel the same way! It’s fun to film hunts here and put the spotlight on some of the awesome opportunities here. Not only that, but showing people that you can be successful here without the use of guides or outfitters. We are blessed to have these opportunities as residents!

@ yeah paying a outfitter is nuts just to take and show you were the animals are. They are everywhere just put in the time to locate them.

Appreciate it! It meant a lot to us to get him this buck.

Thank you!

It can be tough locating them at times. We often spend days looking for a herd and then sometimes there isn’t a decent ram with them. Most of the time, we find a good one with pure luck!

Sadly it was like that just about everywhere we were at. We ran into quite a few illegals in there. Border patrol was swarming and spooking a lot of deer. Getting off the roads and being patient behind the glass allowed us to get on bucks every day. Their home range is very small, so they will definitely be around and easy to get on. Best thing you can do is find them and wait for them to be in a position for a stalk! Most of the hunters we ran into weren’t getting off the roads. Even if you’re only a mile in, you’re way better off than others!

@@gilamonsteroutdoors i smoked a good one my first year and got impatient pushed him into private was told to let him lay. The following year so much illegal traffic i ended up hunting for a few hours and called it quits cause i was by my self! Packed up camp and made the 10 hour drive back home. Thanks for the response and good luck this year

@Brumasterj it’s tough out there. That private is owned by people that are not very “friendly”. But it happens. Thank you for your support. If you ever draw it again, feel free to reach out. Hunting those Coues is a blast and I’d be happy to tag along if you have space at camp!

@@gilamonsteroutdoorsawesome i will for sure!

Thank you for watching. Feel free to reach out to us on our social media platforms or shoot us an email at gilamonsteroutdoors@gmail.com. Sorry for the late response, we just got back from some elk scouting!

It sure is rough. I think it’s some of the hardest country to hunt in the lower 48. Not to mention these ibex have eyes in the back of their head and can see everything! We did see some down below. Surprisingly enough, bedding them down at night and getting after them in the dark paid off really well. Thanks for watching!

@@gilamonsteroutdoors i put together a little video of my 2017 Ibex hunt! Quality of video is nothing like you guys!

@Brumasterj would love to give it a watch if it’s on RUclips. I’m all for watching ibex hunts, they’re so interesting to see how people react to the mountain. And we all start somewhere. Our first few videos were rough. We’ve had to sacrifice a lot of free time and hunting funds to get to where we are. But we do it for those that appreciate it!

@@gilamonsteroutdoors sorry just getting to your response! ruclips.net/video/r1OVCpGzY4E/видео.htmlsi=FljKOW63aY1dW3Ta Take care

Thank you for watching! There’s some good hunting up there by Farmington, love hitting the San Juan too. There’s just something about those Coues deer…

Thank you for watching 👍

Thanks for watching. We appreciate the feedback!

Thanks for watching!

Thank you for watching! We’re glad you enjoyed the film!

The guys are running mostly Kuiu gear in the verde pattern. I believe they had merino shirts and the attack pants.

@@gilamonsteroutdoors Did the attack pants run hot?

@YoungCesarC they can be a little warm mid day, especially if it gets into the 90s. The vents help, but we have moved to the Tiburon pants from Kuiu and the 206 pant from Stone Glacier (which are much more durable).

Thank you for watching and supporting our channel! We will follow your page and do the same!

We used a 7mm rem mag on this hunt. Bullet choice wasn’t the best. Both those calibers would work great, they sure are tough animals! Thanks for watching!

Thank you!!!

Thanks Jacob. Couldn’t have found those nice bucks if we didn’t have your spotting scope!You played a big role in this hunt!

​@gilamonsteroutdoors lol, no you boys actually use it to find things. It's a paperweight in my house for too much of the year😂

Thank you! It was a tough hunt. I think that’s what makes it so much fun. Thanks for watching!

Thank you. They’re fun to hunt. Would love to chase them in AZ next year! Thanks for watching!

Thank you for watching!

Big coues guys over here for sure!

Thank you! And yes, we’re all from Las Cruces!

@@gilamonsteroutdoors nice man! From the silver city area, really enjoy your videos!

@justindiaz6545 not too far from us! We ought to link up for a hunt soon! Thanks for the support!

Thanks for subscribing and watching! We greatly appreciate it!

Thank you for watching!

Its a shame that we had an antler only tag...

Thank you! We appreciate you taking the time to watch our videos 👍

We would always be down to link up for a hunt! Thanks for watching 👍

It’s pretty rough for the wildlife in some of these desert units. These oryx in this area survive off of the nearby cattle tanks. It also helps that they can defend themselves from mountain lions!

I used a 7mm rem mag on this hunt paired with a Hornady Superformance 162 grain bullet. I highly recommend using a different type of ammunition!

@@gilamonsteroutdoors Thank you for the reply! I generally hunt with the Barnes TTSX in a 7mm Rem Mag -- trying to find out what works best to bring these beasts down.

Thanks for watching. I took this sheep on the same January hunt you have. The mountainous areas are great, but they can wear you down. Spend a lot of time behind the glass and if you don’t see rams in a group or around a group, try to locate a new group. They could be solo or grouped up as well. We released another sheep video this year where we took a 26” ram. That video is titled “Sheep Fever” if you want to give it a watch. Both units hold sheep, they just offer different hunting topography!

That’s awesome, it’ll be a great hunt for sure. We pulled some good tags this year, so we will have some good videos lined up for next year!

@@gilamonsteroutdoors Great to hear! Thanks for putting out some great content!

@BigJohn505 we appreciate it! Thank you for watching!

We are hoping you get a toad of a sheep!

Thanks for watching. It depends on the hunt. Early seasons can be great for hunting around water. This hunt was during the rut, and if you’re finding does the bucks are usually with them or nearby. Any other time usually involves a lot of glassing in areas with good bedding spots and feed or water nearby. We find it best to get to vantage points early in the morning and late in the evenings to spot them as they’re moving!
