OK, got it. Fippingtires nailed it! Right in the center of the pic.... One facing right with it's butt showing, the other looking the other way standing right behind or in front of the first one. S.

Great pics Amanda! However, I'm not very good at the 'find the deer' challenges! I think I might have seen one or both of those antelope bucks on my fishing trip a couple of weeks ago though.... ;-) Best regards to you! S.

Great pictures!!! All three of them are definitely 'keeper' memories!!! Thanks for sharing! S.

A buddy of mine and I both have the 36A late Nov hunt. We definitely would be interested in stopping in for fun & food! Thanks for the offer, and we'll be in touch as the fall progress's!! S.

This past weekend I joined a couple of friends on a trip to the Black River for some hiking, fishing, solitude, etc..... It had been MANY years since I had been there, and we had a great time. We didn't see another human soul all weekend long, but we saw plenty of game & fish! I caught the biggest Small Mouth bass of my life (not saying too much, as I don't go after smallies much...)! The pic doesn't quite do it justice, but it right at 3lbs (scale verified...). Fat thing, eating all those crawdads!! I also caught the biggest Brown Trout of my life, but didn't have the camera with me then! He made this small mouth look small (no pun intended, of course...) LOL! Anyway, it was a great weekend!!! S. PS: Amanda, I hope you notice the shirt!!!!!

I was born & raised in Kearny! Son of a copper miner.... I grew-up hunting quail & mule deer in 37B & 24A. Those were the days.... Seemed like there was plenty of both to be found in either of those units then. Also an occasional trip to Florence Junction / Queen Valley for some dove hunting! I still try to get up to the copper basin area for a bird hunting trip when possible, but my deer hunting time is spent elswhere. Good topic! S.

Dang-it Lark! You're the best man!!!! ALWAYS quick wit & levity!!!! Love it man! S. -
Luckiest kids on the planet!!!!! Kudos to you for making that amazing trip possible for your children! Memories for a lifetime for sure!!! S.

Yep, a great trip indeed Doug. The 'two best' was not lost on me, and was celebrated heartily around the fire on Saturday night!!! Lure of choice was Black! Appropriate enough for the location, of course. For smallies, Black grubs (jigs...) with the spinning rod, and black wooley worms & wooley buggers on the fly rod. Caught plenty of them with both forms of tackle. Mainly olive colored hair's ear nymphs for the trout. Except the big boy.... he came on a black rooster tail spinner. Was hoping for a smallmouth when I tried the rooster tail, but lucked into the big brown! Lucky shirt for sure! S.

Pretty funny Lark!!! I know you like to stir the pot!!! I like the 'lamestream media' reference also az4life!! Pretty good!! You're right about your story not being reported on most sites! Only from the 'NUZE' on globalwarmingHOAX.com!!!! Gotta luv the so called media (lamestream or not....) on both sides, don't you? Spin-masters to the grandest extend!!! S.

2nd annual Flagstaff area CWT get together!
stanley replied to Lance's topic in CouesWhitetail.com Get-togethers!
You all should have another great time up there. I really with I could be there, but it conflicts with a business trip out of the country that I have planned and hence I won't be able to make it (AGAIN.......). Best wishes to all though, and I hope to see lots of pics! S. -
Don't forget to stop by Los Hermanos for some of the best Mexican food around! I make the drive up there every other month or so just for lunch! Take a couple of dozen fresh tortillas home and you'll never want to buy the standard supermarket ones again..... Just like home... Best of luck. I hope the shoot is a success! S.

Awesome Coues Mount!!!
stanley replied to huntscout's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
I agree..... VERY cool! Thanks much for sharing. S. -
Is the Small Cafe still there???? It was in an older strip mall on the west side of 87 a little south of the 260 intersection... Stopped in there for lunch years ago, and it was AWESOME!!!! Haven't been back since, but I always think about it. If it's still there, and 1/2 as good as it was then, then go there for lunch!!! Anyone been there? S.

Congrats Amanda, Doug, Lance, Terry, and everyone else!!!!! Nothing for me, but both my sons got Junior elk tags in 6A. Can't wait for fall!!!! Best regards all, S.

AZ Deer Association Banquet May 10
stanley replied to CouesWhitetail's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
Hey Amanda: It's looking like I'm going to be working out of the country during that time period, else I likely would have wanted to join. Maybe next time.... I'm sure everyone will have a good time! S. -
" Valium + Demerol is your friend. " You nailed that one. Not exactly painless at all, but not too bad. I hope you're doing well today and I hope you are happy with the results! I know I am!!! S.

Just gotta say...
stanley replied to Kilimanjaro's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
Welcome back to AZ Scott!!!! I spent 5 years in Salt Lake City (not even close to Northern Montana.....), and that cured me of ever wanting to live in the snow again. ;-) If you would have spent a spring/summer there you might have been teased into staying a bit longer, but that's all mute at this point. Again; a sincere welcome back to you. Now let's pray for some monsoon rain for those mearns!!! S. :-) -
Had it one year ago. I am VERY satisfied with my decision to finally get it done. My eyes were something like 20/250 prior to the surgery, and am now 20/20 (20/15 on the left, 20/20 on the right...). No problems per se'..... I get a little 'fog' at night around bright lights, but it is really nothing that is significant. I went through Dr. Jay Swartz in Scottsdale. Price was somewhere around $3500.00 (could have gone cheaper, but I personally would NEVER bargain shop with my eye sight.... ). Good luck! S. PS: No more foggy glasses on those cool mornings!!!!

Reminder to cherish every day.....
stanley replied to CouesWhitetail's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona
Ugh..... My heart was broken when I got the e-mail last night Amanda..... True tragedy. I met Michael briefly at one of the ADA banquets. I know him and his sister were always there to help-out their dad. Mark is a true gentleman, and the apple never falls far from the tree. Sincere condolences to the Bool family. I'll say a prayer for Vicky as well. I hope she recovers. S.
