Coues Sniper

Just a gorgeous buck. Congrats to all involved. Chad Smith is the real deal. He put my old man on a goat a couple years ago that was flat out amazing. If Pops could have put an arrow in him, he would have been the new world record. He was killed on the rifle hunt and still went like 91+" - busted. One horn was over 20" if I remember right.

NICE buck, congrats man!

nohoch - your avatar scares the buhjeezes out of me And Chrissy, they're just kidding around - take it easy.

Isn't that two great bears in a row??? Really nice bear, congrats.

Bulls will bugle some pretty much year round. I've heard them from July to January. They'll start getting more and more frequent from now till rut, but there's no real rut yet. They're just playing around

Welcome to the addiction my friend. It only gets worse from here Now get out there and put an arrow in that buck.

Catching the fish = AWESOME Not being able to keep the fish = BOOTY - You did all the work and they made money off it!

Mech? 2 Blade? 3? 4? chisel tip? cutting point? 1 piece?

WOOHOO! Congrats on a stud of a buck! Great looking deer.

It actually grossed 239 and 7/8. 228 was just the typical frame

I've sat after a rain. Pretty much a waste. Very young deer will come in out of habit, but mature deer know better. Plenty of other places to find water after a rain besides a tank. Give it a week at the very least.

130" archery Coues is becoming an every year thing now. Crazy. Those two bucks are absolute pigs.

Sir, if you can tell that elk is limping from those photos, I want you on my hunting team!! +1 TJ Another +1 He does look thin. His spine looks to be very visible .

Beleive me, there are chiggers in AZ. Lots in places. This year should be awful with the rains.

Hahaha! Now that's a review .

Need a new pair of boots for this season, and am looking at the Meindl Ibex. Anyone here have any experience wih them? I can't find any reviews on them. I looked at the Perfekt Hunters which have tons of good reviews, but they are insulated, and a little too heavy for my liking. The Ibex are uninsulated and only 3.2 lbs/pair at 9" which sounds perfect. I was initially looking at the Danner Jackals, but have heard too many people say they don't last. Thanks in advance, Kevin

So Coach and izquick, your feet don't get hot in the Perfekts in warm weather? My feet sweat easy, even in fancy socks . I haven't worn insulated boots in years.

Sorry about the meat, but NICE buck!

very nice

Nice buck, congrats

Nice buck! Congrats! You have the bragging rights in the family now

Jeff, awesome goat man! And spot and stalk archery? Even better. Congrats!

James, I'm counting the days too buddy. I can't wait to help you put a long range smack down on a piggly ram bro!

Yep, that's sick alright

That's incredible. Mike you really outdid yourself on that one. I definitely need a print or two. The shirts should look awesome!
