Are you serious?! You are asking about the holy grail of honey holes! How dare you! Just kidding! The only places I know will be over run with drunk college kids! They are great fun though

IMO, if you honestly bust your Arse to find the animal and are unsuccesful then I feel that you should hunt on. It happens, but I think it should be reported.

Much more feminine (sp) than mine as mine is "El Chupacabra"

I would be more interested in a wall calendar as well. -
I hate to do it but my 15x56 Swarovski's are on the market

It is going to cost you more in the long run. Hang on to them, and step up working! -

That first night shot is AWESOME! -
Yesterday and today started out pretty nasty. Had plans to call both days, but they got cancelled because it was rainy and windy. Well, about 1030 I decided it was a nice day to call! (at my house anyways) Made the 22 mile drive, and was in coyote country! As soon as I opened the door, I was greeted by a steady 10-15 mph wind. Great. Well, I ended up setting up with the wind as a cross wind. I really didnt expect anything to come in as I was less than 300 yards from a fairly high traveled highway. About 7 minutes in I see a coyote haulin arse in! Sweet! I can tell this dog is coming in seriously, but decided not to switch from my Kimber, 22-250 to my 870 12 guage... Mistake! I had the coyote in my cross hairs at about 20 yards (max) I yipped at him, but he wouldnt stop. He then made his way around to my left and got in my scent trail and took off. I never saw him again! Man, was that a good increase of the pulse!

Almost a windy day dog!

Josh, I had them both. I carry both on every stand. It is always hard to decided which to have in hand though! I would assume you saw the post on PM.com talking exactly what you brought up.... -
You guys will get them! Larry, that buck that is really hard to see looks like he is pretty massive!

Southern units and safety
firstcoueswas80 replied to lowyder993s's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
Of course there are illegals down there. I had one walk behind camp ( I think). I never saw any out there walking around. Best you can do is carry a side arm. I know some people carry a side arm with the magazine in it, but not one in the pipe. Carry your side arm ready to roll and keep your wits about you. -

I actually started out with the shotgun too. Made my first set, then switched to the rifle. Wish I wouldnt have! It was a moral victory calling one in with how bad the wind was! Oh well. I will get some more this weekend! -
TIKKA LITE your take?
firstcoueswas80 replied to SO I HUNT's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
From everything I have read, the Tikka is a heck of a gun. Personally, I dont like the feel but what do I know. I would try some different ammo, the Tikka should probably do better than 1.5" at 100 yards. ( or so I have been told!) -
Awesome! What .257 caliber gun was he shooting?
-
You mean on top of that mountain, in the sunny side under the shade of that mesquite tree where that big SOB used to hang out?
-
If the deal for the Foxpro falls through, I would like to be second in line please... If I would have seen this earlier, I would have been first in line!

DUDE!!! That is awesome! how did, you, Tyler, Christian and Jim all get together to take this picture?

HEAR! HEAR!...ATTENTION MEMBERS!...
firstcoueswas80 replied to Chef's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
Donation: SENT! Cant thank you enough Amanda... If this site was never made I might have graduated college, I might have a social life, and I might not have the intesnse passion I have for coues! -
I havent read what everyone has said so here goes my answer: I REALLY like Wac'em 100 grian 3 blades. They fly F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C!!! I shot a 3" group at 50 yards with them and that is not the norm for me! I have shot Muzzy's as well, and they didnt fly as great, neither did the Shuttle- T lockts ( I was actually pretty disapointed in them, they didnt seem all that sharp either).

a BIG thanks to our very own Snapshot!!
firstcoueswas80 replied to Kilimanjaro's topic in Non-hunting trip reports
Guys, pictures dont do the Zebra justice! First of all, it is a neat animal to look at anyways, but the mount is awesome! That is why Scott has two capes for me, and one for my dad! -
Cats and Coues for the old man.
firstcoueswas80 replied to PRED8R's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona
Wow that does look like a big ole cat! I am curious how you could pass on the buck though! Double split eye guards?! He is awesome! Congrats! -
Win a Covert II Trail Camera!!

2,456 That is probably way off, but it is my old baseball, and football number combined -
Awesome find! Too bad it wasnt still attached to a live buck!
-
That is awesome! Just another example of why my rifle is NEVER more than 6 feet away! I am willing to bet yours will stay close from now on as well!

I have never found hounds, but RedRabbit and I found some bodys GSP one year Mearns hunting. He ran up to us acting scared/worried/confused. I tried to get him over to me to check him out, but all I could do was give him a little water and part of a power bar.
