When they moved up the dates, the department probably figured that they would have a substantial loss of apps anyway come on you should know better than that!!! that means AZGFD would have used their brains! we all know better than that!

I'm lucky? hahaha!

Never done it, but if you pay my way ill go with you '

o yeah, i also learned : dont guide for Mullins outfitters.... the owner/operator is a real.... well, ya know just joking Jim, dont want to hurt your feelings

opening day i passed on a buck that i should have shot. he was just a big fork, but i ended up passing on him and shooting a smaller fork on the last day. he was with two other nice bucks and i stalked wo 308 of them. never saw the 2 bigger bucks leave, but once i got set up found the big fork at 308 right away. i regret passing on the big fork, but i guess hind sight is 20/20. Also, dad and i used the quads a little too much. dad wasnt up for much hiking, and me not wanting to get too far from him i hunted "lazily" didnt do much hiking but a lot of quad riding. i wont be doing that any more, i will use my quad to get me where i want to get, then hunt and hike from there.

Silly Bret, some of us have to attend college and cant hunt all the time

nice, but i dont know which one is uglier.

That thing is funky!

Sooner rather than later!!! 140 accubonds, or 130 interbonds. i shoot 140 accubonds and they have a BC of .496... pretty good! push em around 3200 FPS and ur set!

yeah, you do. that monster shed is 2.5 inches. dangit!

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.

agreed.... hardest part for me would be which gun to use?? Something that makes a small hole???? 22-250 shoots 50 gr. ballistic tips, might blow up on glass..... always wanted to take a lion with my bow though...

agreed.... hardest part for me would be which gun to use??

also, did you see it was a fork not a spike! who knows maybe this year ill actully be able to take a 3x3!(actually this year im going 3x3 or nothing)

Thats funny.... dont know if ya read it or not, but i killed my buck in november with one shot! thats right! ONE SHOT!!! funny thing is, i almost went to Western New Mexico in Silver City... guess its a good thing i didnt go there

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!

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?
