Sorry more than one just a couple that mean something special, more than the actual quality of the picture.

Weather makes a huge difference. I was in Kansas last week and had lots of birds making noise the first morning until it started to rain. Didn't hear a singel gobble the next three days. Finally ambushed a young tom (sounds better than a 2 or 3 year old jake). Lots and lots of birds, no noise.

Well I took my boy out big game hunting yesterday. Got out of school and took a real long road trip, (bout 5 miles) to find these bad boys. I went 3 for 3 and then proceded to miss the next two shots. Ranged one at 33 yards, the other at 22. One I shot at 31 yards had enough left in him to get down in his hole. Here is my son, my monster off-road vehicle, Couswhitetail.com sticker and this afternoons take. I finally think I'm tuned and shooting ok, ready for hunting season.

Hey Andy cool pic, too bad you weren't able to make it with them, I think I'm due for an introduction and added to the hunting buddy list.

Standman- turned out very good, Richard has done a few things for me and I really like his work alot.

In not so colorfull language I agree with Lark. For me personally what dictates ethics is not what kind of shot is taken, but what is done after the shot is taken. Do you check and make sure you missed (if you think you did) or if you did hit the animal do you really spend the next 4 days looking for your wounded animal, or do you just say, oops another one got away, too bad. No matter how close you are, or how good of a shot you are, mistakes and miscues may happen, I'll never judge someone for making a poor shot, but I will if they don't spend the time to make it right. my .02 Houston

That kid rocks. Cool link

cool pics, probably lion kill spread out by coyotes

We had alot of fun, I added the Coueswhitetail.com sticker the W 04 was a bonus came with the car. Arrows are just fine, they are the Easton ACC's, got them pretty cheap. Normally too expensive for my blood, but they are awesome no complaints at all. Used same arrow for all 5 shots, just rubber blunts. Oops I meant to say last week not yesterday in the opening post. thanks RR.

very nice, interesting look, i like it.

Jason-pretty cool, nice buck.

Welcome Mike, every unit that has Coues has P&Y Coues. Lots of public access. All of the archery deer tags (as of today) are OTC. You will see alot more bucks in the rut during the Dec. and Jan season but IMO the August/Sept. season offers a better chance for archers, less pressure and easier to pattern.

102-103" edit. related to buck i shot last year, forgot to add extra beam length my guess is closer to 108"

I read all the comments first then clicked on the link and as it was loading I read the title and thought some idiot shot a fake moose in AZ. I was thinking that had to be one of the stupidest things ever done.

Well I've also been pretty lucky, bunch of twisted ankles etc.. but nothing bad. Funny about the fish hook, as soon as I saw that post I remember my first time fly-fishing, my arm went a little horizontal and the hook on the fly caught my buddy in the ear as I jerked it forward. tore out the bottom portion of his ear, we haven't talked much since.

Funny thing is not everyone knows that, the marketing works for most people. We also did a few penny experiments in the chem classes i took

Very nice pic, and some great bucks in there, awesome. Welcome to CWT.com

nice buck bret, glad you posted it. congrats to your dad

way to go, that is a pretty cool success story as Deerslam said. Awesome

Applied for bonus points in CO Getting the bow ready for Kansas turkey

azpackhorse- I went and got an xt. I shot most of the new bows, including bowtech, hoyt, mathews and really like the Trykon and Switchback, finally decided on the switchback xt, the valley on the Trykon i didn't like and had a negative experience with bowtech reps, and the xt felt great. My buddy has a farm in Kansas and we are going back and we will use a blind. I still can't wait for August, I'm determined to take my first coues this year ( i said that last year, getting a little closer )

nice pig, I just got a new bow after my hunts were done and am getting it in shape for turkey in Kansas

Still looks the same for me

Congrats to all the hunters, and the winners, very nice bucks. AWESOME

nice pig way to go, can't wait til my kids are old enough.
