I'm non resident, from Help Paso, Texas. Draw more often than not for zone 16. Me and my buddy are usually successful more than not, more him than me.  Went by myself Sat and Sun for opening two days for rifle deer. Didn't seem like anyone out, more hikers and campers than hunters, it was really warm but still felt odd. Spring Turkey around Cloudcroft was like a zoo so many hunters out you couldn't throw a rock without hitting somebody,  but this weekend was strangely quiet... how was your opening weekend? I was skunked as usual and feeling a bad knee so didn't cover much ground?? 2020, just keeps giving....

Unless you are a land owner, or one lucky MoFo, hunting in this state has turned to shit in a hand basket.  

Back in the late 70s, my dad, brother and I usually got a deer, a turkey, and occasionally, a bear.

The only game animal you are 'guaranteed' to harvest is the local Libtard.  They don't move fast, can be taken down by a kick to the groin, and are fatter than any farm raised hog.  I wouldn't recommend consuming them, as they are toxic.

Best bet is to raise your own, and enjoy.

The animals get the proclamation a week before we do.  Smart bastages are just that, smart.
I had a rabbit tell me he identified as an Oryx.  I still shot his ass and fed him to the dogs.

Kitty prefers fowl.
