Very cool double!! Congrats!

You are on a sticker-spotting roll Donnie!

A friend took these pics at big safeway in Globe yesterday....whose Jeep? My husband also said he saw a sticker yesterday on a different vehicle up in the Pinals....not sure who that was.

Yes he was with some other people doing some birding. He didn't tell me what the vehicle looked like...just said he saw a sticker up there.

Very cool experience! Thanks for sharing the pics and story!

This is a pick-up head that a worker of mine found last year and I thought it would make a great Guess the Score contest. He isn't all that into deer, so he gave me the rack! Nice! You are guessing GROSS score (the total inches before any deductions). To enter the contest, just post what you think is the Gross score of this buck in this thread. Guesses must be posted by Aug 18 at 5 pm. Don't forget to notice the kicker on the right antler. I would also like to introduce Western Whitetail. Western Whitetail is a blog, online magazine and soon to be online TV show that is dedicated to giving hunters a ton of info about hunting whitetail in the Western US.

Thank you Western Whitetail! Western Whitetail was created by a member of the CW.com forum (Darren Choate) along with his business partner Troy Bix.

Very nice!!!!

Wow!!! I am so happy for you!!! That is awesome!!!

Way to stick with it!

I would like to introduce Copper Country Guide and Outfitters, owned by Steven Sullivan. This is a 2nd generation business, but Steven has been guiding hunters as part of this business for the last 5 years. Steven has two other guides that work with him and they take on average about 5 clients per year. They specialize in hunts in Arizona for all species (no Mexico or New Mexico hunts). When asked what makes your guiding business different from the others, Steven said, "As a small guide business we have two goals, one to make the client feel like family and two to give the client a hunt of a life time. By achieving this we do not over book our hunts or ever sub-out our clients." Steven guides archery as well as rifle hunters. And Steven is very familiar with BIG coues deer....check out this buck he shot awhile back. Copper Country Guide and Outfitters is based out of Globe, AZ. They have been running about 100% success on their clients' hunts and you can contact Steven to get a list of clients to call and talk with about their experience with him. I called several of them and I can tell you they gave glowing reviews of his service. They all stated that Steven was very professional, a real pleasure to hunt with, and they learned a lot from him while in the field hunting. I had the pleasure of going out to his ranch and scoring that giant Coues for Steven awhile back. And I can tell you that he and his wife are really great to spend time with and I can see how anyone using his guiding service would be very satisfied. Please visit their website to learn more about the business and see some more client photos. http://coppercountry...om/default.aspx

Hope you guys have a great one!

I know there is a bit of a problem with the Club skin for displaying PMs. You might try changing themes/skins and see if you are able to view PMs properly. Unfortunately, the authors of certain themes don't always have all the kinks worked out and so some themes may view PMs better than others. to try chaning the theme, look in the lower left of the main forum page for the text Change Theme, click on that and a dropdown menu will show with available themes. Try something other than the Club theme and see if it helps with your issue.

Love the triplets! tough year for bears to live through alone much less raise triplets! I am amazed they survived this long! Congrats mamma bear!

Thought you all might enjoy reading through this. I have haven't looked it over in detail, but lots of interesting hunting/fishing stats in this report. It's kinda large, might take a little while to download. FWS-National-Preliminary-Report-2011.pdf

Yes, of course.....Doug is working on setting it up. Should be about the same categories as last year. If somone has a suggestion for new categories, let me know!

If you crop out the skylines, then the only way someone can recognize the place is if there already know about it, which means you are not driving more hunters there. Cropping out identifiable features (like mountains in the background) is probably a good idea.

Very cool!! Thanks for sharing the pic!

I saw a flock of brown pelicans fly across I-19 south of tucson a year or so ago. I was rather shocked to see them! I wonder who you ran into down there that did owl surveys with me. Older guy, younger guy? You can email me with more details if you like, I am curious who it was. amanda@coueswhitetail.com
