no worries

very suspenseful story, thanks

Great write up on the ups and downs of learning to hunt Coues. This site has so many guys who make it look easy. Like you, I’ve benefited from the knowledge they share. Congrats on both deer.

Glad you were able to work some hunting into the schedule. Great looking buck. Congrats

SPF thx Jim

Awesome responses. really cool. Hmmm, wonder if I could borrow a truck, custom rifle and a GPS with a bunch of honey holes ?

That’s your first ? kinda like having a cheerleader as your first real girlfriend

Congrats on a great looking Coues. Nice write up as well.

Good looking deer. The second pic looks like "he" has udders... LOL Congrats...

Nice looking buck, gotta love those 143s on coues. Congrats.

I’ve got to guit looking at this rifle. Someone buy it.

We have a couple of Tikka 260s and they are awesome shooters.

Really cool story. I don’t have any of those types of memories to share, but my kids will. 👍

Great story and some solid bucks. Congrats

I put in for the leftovers and ended up with 30A late October. Any of you guys doing the same hunt ? I have a ton of unused vacation and will prolly hunt the whole week. Pm or respond if you are interested in doing some scouting/hunting in 30A. thanks, Jim

Way to get it done solo. Congrats

Nice gen 2 Razor spotting scope. RS 85S 27-60x85 straight model. Used on a few hunts but it’s in great shape. No scratches or wear marks. Comes with box and black Vortex padded case. $950 shipped or $900 picked up in Tucson

Thanks Viper.. Spotter has sold.

Nice double. Both are great bucks.

Sounds like an awesome time. I'll have to try an elk hunt someday. Congrats.

A couple of great bucks. Congrats.

Thanks for sharing your adventure. It’s great when things go as plan. Congrats on a fine buck.

I have a couple of Vortex Vultures 15x56 binoculars that my kids used. They survived pretty well. No chinks in the armor and the lenses are good. Some of the lens covers are missing and you can have Vortex replace them for free. I should have all the boxes, padded cases , etc. that they came with. $300 each Located in Tucson Thanks , Jim

Both pair are sold. Thx Jim

Is the area where his antlers come out of the skull really pronounced, or is it just the angle of the pic

Solis buck, the one you wanted must have been really nice.
