Coues Buck Contest WINNERS
firstcoueswas80 replied to Red Rabbit's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
Dang.. peloncillo beat me! too bad there wasnt a smallest buck contest last year! i would have won that no contest! congrats to all the winner, big and small! -
Couldnt have said it better myself! Maybe i can find my first December 36b tag!
-
Here is my biggest coues shed... hopefully one day i can take a buck this big!
-
also the best rumor ive ever heard. i also dont doubt it! witht he draw being moved up so far (about time AZGFD did something that actually made sense) i do not fathom it hard for people to miss it. talked to some out of state guys i know and about half of them missed it.
-
I tell ya, the 270wsm sure seems to whoop up on the coues. Bryan, what bullet you lookin at shootin? do you reload or are you going to shoot factory fodder?
-
With a Spotter, you will need a heavy or atleast somewhat heavy tripod to hold the weight, especially with the windy days.

watch that disc that comes with it, it explains how to use the triangles.

What is the greatest danger to Coue's hunting in your state?
firstcoueswas80 replied to SilentButDeadly's topic in Political Discussions related to hunting
Habitat loss for ditto what Amanda said. also, i believe global warming may be chaning our cahnces of a quality hunt. i have heard stories of guys hunting coues in the souther units (34a,36b) waking up with snow and frost on the ground. now a days, if you get either one of those in December, your considered lucky! -
Deer game processing question
firstcoueswas80 replied to vml's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona
Things that i would have done differently" 1. i would not spray it off with water. 2. i would not have waited nearly 3 1/2 months to take it to the butcher, i usually take my deer the next day or day after if possible. on the other hand, try soaking it in milk for a while before you cook your next meal of venison -
doesnt matter to me what shade of pink it is as long as either you or jim are wearing it
-
will do, when you and i go out in december for my 110, ill shoot it 5 miles from camp.. long enough for ya?
-
Jim, pink is my favorite color for you to wear for me, there is a difference. it started life as a 150 yard pack job, now its down to 80 yards? dang!
-
Jim, your funny! actually, ive been sick for a while, havent really eaten. problems i had : the first round i would load would to fine and eject fine, after that, when feeding the 2nd and 3rd bullet, if you racked the action at anything less then the speed of sound the shell would get kicked up to high and come out of the gun. Doug and i bent the piece of metal that connects the top of the magaznie to the bottom metal and could not get it to work right. traded it in less than a week for my 270 wsm i have now recoil is not bad at all. but my 270wsm is also a heavy SOB so that kills a lot of recoil.
-
Brian, one thing to watch for : make sure the gun feeds properly. i HAD a 700 sps in 270wsm that would not feed worth a dang! i didnt even shoot the gun, noticed it would feed right, traded it for my curretn 270wsm and havent looked back since.
-
Do you guys think more elk or deer hav funky antlers? i think its elk myself. Jim, that spike bull is awesome! dont know if i could pass on that freak!

Said goodbye to a dear old friend yesterday.....
firstcoueswas80 replied to CouesWhitetail's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
that is tough to stomach amana, sorry about your loss. when i was young, prolly less than 10, we had to put both of our dogs down in less than a month! my freshman year of college, the first time i went home i walked out back to see my ole Rottweiler Frazier, this dog was awesome! anyways, i walk out back and he didnt run to the door... hmmm. he was laying on the porch, passed on. it was very fresh also, rigamortus hadnt even se it. that was hard to take. Amanda, Maura looks alot like my dog "Ojos", markings are very close, white chest, half white paws, just brown. it is always hard to put a loved pet dowm especially a dog! i am sorry to hear the loss! -
