Here in my small town in lower NM, the deer are so bad that Fish & Game authorized a guided depredation hunt in town with bow. They are also trapping them for relocation in the woods where they are in low numbers. I personally don't hunt (I'm not crazy about venison) but i do my fair share with my F-250. Got one the other day, hit it with the front then drug it under a 35ft 5th-wheel I was hauling. I didn't even apply the brakes, just kept on trucking.

Too bad I don't live closer, I'd have had you let me know where it was... I Like venison!!

F-250's pack one heck of a punch :icon_winking:

In July a group of us rode from Missouri to Southwest Colorado and dropped down into northern New Mexico on our way home. We made a big mistake by riding on Hwy 124, which turned into dirt, dust, and ruts for approximately 20 miles. Then after finally returning to civilization with a paved highway, we encountered several miles of loose gravel on the highway. Not a fun day in the saddle on mountainous roads.


"The journey is never a direct route; it is circuitous, and somewhere along the way, we discover that the journey is more significant than the destination, and the people we meet will be traveling companions of our memories forever." N. Demille

Hey twoiron72, not sure where hwy 124 is, but northern NM is in a world of it's own. Down here in the south, we actually have pavement. It's a lot more open and warmer, although my last ride on sunday called for a vest over my t-shirt. It won't be long and my leather jacket will come out of the closet.
