Well, I have been working on the Bronze for the buck contest. I am almost finished. I am just tweeking the final details. Here are some pictures. If you have any comments, advise, critical suggestions ect... let me know. this bronze is for you, so I want you to like it.>>Jason Here is what I started with, wax chips. then I melt them down to a warm "peanut butter" that I can mold like clay. This is me working. Well, what do you all think?>>jason

Hey Houston. Well, after you get all yer student loans paid off from dental school, you can become one of my collectors, then I can pay off mt student loans!! Glad you like the sculpture. I may do another one and make an edition. I'll put them in the Coues Store, and give a big huge discout to Members. Well, good luck on your one day hunt!!>>Jason

Dang man! I was pulling for you. Maybe we can get together and you can shoot some yotes with yer .257. that ought to make you feel better. Take it easy on my little Hunter man when you cast him up!! Later>>Jason

Here is a picture to show scale, (I put my scope in, because Fatfootdoc likes to look at it ). This is my studio, (it's a huge mess in this pict)

Elkhunter-- way to go man! You sure have taken some nice animals since those early days on the AZOD boards! Congrats!!>>Jason

Way to go. That is a Pretty deer!!>>JAson

Nice deer. Way to go.

Sweet buck. Sounds like a great day! I can't wait for my hunt in a few weeks!!>>Jason

Houston, yeah boy, it's year round baby! I quit the funeral buisness to focus on school, and the razor went into the trash!! Adam-- My scope is not my wife, it's my mistress!!>>Jason

We just got back from our antelope hunt, my wife and father-in-law both killed their first bucks. It was pretty cool...... It was a great weekend. I am so glad I have a wife that hunts!!!>>Jason

Have any of you people had any experience with Cabela's 20x80 binocs?? Let me know.>>Jason

AG- Dude you are going to hurt my feelings! Do you think I need to get off my diet of Krispy Kremes and Pepsi? as far a my scope goes, if I could pro-create with it, I would!!! >>Jason

Rick 3,..... Where do you live? I drew the November Rifle Coues hunt for the Burros. I have put about 200 miles on my pick up (and I LIVE in Silver City!) and about 25-30 miles on foot since I found out I drew the tag. I have picked up several sheds and seen some nice bucks (before the rains started). I can tell you this, it ain't going to be a sure thing. There is alot of country out there with LOTS of little canyons for deer to hide. Scouting will be the most important thing that you can do if you want a nice deer. Don't think that just because it's the Burro's you will be able to drive out, park your truck and kill a 90 incher before noon. I don't think I'll ever draw this tag again, so I'd be willing to share some info with you after my hunt, IF I knew you put in some scouting time on your own. Good Luck, and congratsd on the tag>>>Jason

Ok, Ok, Ok, I just had to ask!>>Jason

I am usind a Ziess scope, a 5.0 mega-pixel camera and a HEAVY tripod.>>Jason

I got a good picture of this deer while he was eating. As soon as he lifted up his head, he spotted me and moved off. Pretty little buck though.>>Jason Got a cool picture of this guy too....

I LOVE cooking out! Here are some picts of a big feed we put on a few weeks ago. We fed about 100 people. There is nothing like good coals! Hope this makes you all hungry!!!>>Jason

All the pictures I have posted on here were digiscope picts (see "cute little buck") anyway, you can get a pretty in-exspensive camera mount at Sportsman's or even in the new Cabela's for about 50 bucks. They will help you take WAY better pictures.>>Jason

Got a nice picture of this little guy the other day. I think he still has milk on his lips!! Enjoy!!>>Jason

I grew up cooking in dutch ovens. It sure beats pork and beans. Thom C, here is one for you, Dig a 2-3 foot deep hole in a dry wash next to your hunting camp. Build a nice hot fire in it at lunch time. Put a London Broil or two in your oven. Put some carrots, potatoes, lots of onions and garlic and season it up how you like. cover it with water or beef broth. Or, if you feel creative, put a big can of green enchilada sauce in it! Put the oven in the hole (1/2 the caols on top of the oven and half underneath, then bury it. When you get back to camp that night, you will have some good eats!!! >>Jason

Size doesn't matter, right guys? Right? Come on, tell me I'm right! Anyway, this is a cute little sucker!>>Jason

Yeah, I knew there were some high quality genetics in the Burros, and this shed proves it!! I am stoked now!! This is prolly a 3 or 4 year old buck! I just hope he steps out in November!!

I hope I can find a buck like that on my November rifle hunt!! Holy Crap! That is a beautiful deer.>>Jason

Yeah Man! I lived in Silver City for a few years (1999-2002), during that time, I got to be real good freinds with Wayne Billings. After I moved away, we stayed in regular contact. He even came over to Arizona and elk hunted with me for a week. Now that I am back in town, he is really the only dude I know. Maybe we could all get together and grill some meat. I live out in Bad to the bone, Tyrone.

Jason, Are you a UFC fan? My wife and I went to UFC 63 (Hughes vs. Penn) "the count" Micheal Bisbing sat right behind us! He spilled his beer of my wife, during the Pulver/Lauzon fight (if you could call it that) Anyway, we love the Octagon!>>Jason
