Hondo Ranch
Elite is offering archery mule deer hunts on the Hondo Ranch for the January, 2010 season. The Hondo Ranch consists of almost 5,000 acres located in the foothills of the Sacramento Mountains. The ranch borders the Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation for three miles.
The mule deer rut in this part of the world is late December through early January. The archery hunt coincides with the latter part of the rut.
A maximum of two archery deer hunters will be booked per year on this ranch. The licenses for the hunts are guaranteed without having to go through the draw.
The bucks on this ranch are typically in the 140 to 160-class. Bucks in the 170 and 180-class have been seen on the ranch each year during the elk hunts. But that class of deer is certainly going to be the exception, even during the rut. Elite took one hunter on the ranch during the 2008 season. He harvested a nice 140-class buck on the third day of the hunt. Elite also took one hunter during the 2009 season and after missing a 180-class buck, harvested a 160-class buck.
Accommodations will be provided in a cabin at the ranch. All meals and field transportation
will be provided. Airport service is available into
Roswell or Albuquerque, NM.

Perry Ranch
We are pleased to offer quality mule deer hunting in central New Mexico on the Perry Ranch. This 1,300-acre ranch borders the Hondo Ranch. 2010 will be the first year the ranch will be commercially hunted.
The good bucks in this area are the 150 to 160-class deer. It is possible to see a deer in the 170 to 180-class, but it is not probable. This hunt will be a high success hunt on good but not great deer.
An archery hunt will be offered in January and a rifle hunt will be offered in November. Only two hunters will be booked on each hunt.
Accommodations will be provided in our lodge. All meals are included.
