Rules & Guidelines

Dressing For Your Hunt

New Mexico Weather can be unpredictable year-round, When packing for your hunting trip

You should keep all-day comfort in the field in mind and dress accordingly.


No matter what time of the year you hunt, a lightweight, breathable field pack is a necessity. Your pack should fit well so it’s comfortable without a lot of adjusting, should be small enough to carry what you need, but large enough that you don’t have to empty the contents to find what you want. If it makes your back sweat or needs constant adjusting, it will interfere with your hunt.


Sturdy, waterproof, comfortable, previously worn lace-up boots. If you are buying new boots for your hunt, purchase them months in advance making sure they are well-worn and comfortable when you arrive, ill-fitting, uncomfortable boots will ruin your hunt experience. Field and Stream and Outdoor Life both shared great advice for hunting boots.


Wool, or wool blend moisture-wicking socks, Gortex lined boots or Gortex boot liners for cold weather. Waterproof head cover, gaiters, and gloves. Gaiters can prevent wet pant legs and prevent minor brush injuries. Head cover will shield you from the sun, and rain and aid warmth if necessary.

A lightweight pair of gloves will keep your hands warm when glassing and ensure they aren’t too cold to take a shot, Goretex gloves will keep your hands warm during colder weather hunts.
