From navigating the state’s competitive public draw to identifying quality private-land opportunities, NM HUNTCO is committed to helping clients make the most of their New Mexico hunting experience.

Jim has hunted and evaluated many of New Mexico’s premier big-game ranches and public-land units, developing longstanding relationships with landowners and extensive knowledge of the state’s wildlife management programs. He also served on the original Landowner Sign-Up System Committee and the A-Plus Task Force.

Our Mission is building New Mexico big game hunting success, one relationship at a time. Come as a client, leave as a friend.

NM HUNTCO strives to provide all clients with a one of kind New Mexico hunting experience. We specialize in customizing outfitted public land and private land Elk, Deer, Antelope, Big Horn Sheep, Oryx and Ibex hunts in the beautiful ‘Land of Enchantment’ a.k.a New Mexico. In addition and more importantly, we consult on the New Mexico landowner hunting permit system and will secondly assist with the New Mexico public hunting application system. We are permitted by government agencies in 85% of the state but if we don’t have what you desire for your New Mexico hunting experience, we will certainly help you find the hunt that fits you through the network of relationships we’ve built over the years with other outfitters in New Mexico.
