A little about Tommy, owner/operator of Gila Wilderness Hunting.
Just to let you know a little about myself. I've been hunting the great
state of New Mexico all my life. I have a wonderful wife and two strong boys.
I'm an avid outdoorsman and love being one with nature. In 1999 I decided to
expand my opportunities. I wanted to try and hunt a different state. Everyone
always talked about hunting Utah for good Mule deer. So a friend and I made
plans to hunt Utah. The problem was where do we hunt in Utah? We didn't have
the money to hire a guide so we had to put in the draw and go from there.
In doing my research I found a guy that would provide all the information
needed to hunt the area we drew. He sent me Topo maps, told me where the
good camping spots were, what to expect as far as weather, where to hunt.
Basically all the information needed to make our hunt as painless as possible.
When we headed out we knew exactly where to go and what to expect. We had a
great time and saw plenty of animals. On the way home (15 hour drive) I
was thinking, "Why can't I run the same kind of service here in New Mexico"?
I'm sure that there are plenty of hunters that can use this kind of service.
Why pay thousands of dollars for a guide, when with basic information we can
do it ourselves. So here it is.
