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.

Hey huntnut are you sure you want to show pictures of expired tags.

I think bullw knows them

BullW-Are they your uncles? Anyway congrats, can't wait to see pictures

Sweet pictures Dan, looks like you were right on top of that bull.

Tremendous buck, awesome thanks for the heads up. BTW- I've haven't heard anything yet. Houston

I don't know computers very good but here is a lighter version. Nice Pictures

Lark lol- did you lean it agin the barn when you feed carn to your horse.

I used the Eberlstock just one pack to pack out Coues buck and all gear, tripod and 15x's etc... and had room left over. Not that I could have picked it up anyway. I was very pleased. I had the chance to try out the Montec G5's and loved them. They really did a number on the rocks behind a Coues buck. Actually one in August and then again in Jan. If I could hit the broadside of a barn when I get excited I might have better news, anyway I guess I get another day or two before the end of season. I also bought a knife from Arizona Guide Bark River knife and tool and caped and quartered a mule deer of my brothers and my Coues buck and a few odds and ends and would recommend them, as long as it comes back okay from getting sharpened.

I bet he is pretty close to where he ran out of blood, but I don't know. That sure sucks, I hope you get to find him.

That is awesome, congrats on the nice bucks.

I was wondering how many times most of you shoot at a Coues every year? This year I've stalked a bunch of bucks and pulled my bow back half a dozen times but have only let the arrow fly twice. Once in August at the buck I ended up harvesting in November and once a couple of days ago. Both times I've made stupid mistakes due to the excitement of harvesting my first Coues with a bow. Last week I ranged a buck at 38 yards and put my 30 yard pin on him So lets hear it, how many times do you shoot at a deer each year, or how many times did you shoot before you got your first Coues?

Well, sure glad to see I'm not the only one missing I like the attitude you can't hit anything if you don't shoot. One of these days. Maybe this week.

I don't have time or money to apply this year but I'm trying to scrape enough for bonus points

Great buck, very nice mass on the bottom pic. Awesome.

Jim- I agree completely. I had a 100+ inch buck bed about 3-4 hundred yards away in some thick brush and a small 2 point a hundred yards away and I didn't even go over to where the big buck was, I knew I had to shoot a small buck before I could even try again at a big buck. I'm also thinking I need to go shoot another mulie since it has been awhile since I drew blood with my bow.

I saw one this past week in 33 on the Mt Lemmon/Oracle road, was on the tailgate of a truck, didn't get to see what color or make. i was in my little toyota tercel with the sticker on the back window.

Well thanks all, maybe I'm not hopeless. I've shot elk and one mule deer with my bow, javelina, bunch of rabbits, quail etc... so I'm not quite a newbie but I can't seem to stay calm on a coues. Maybe after my first one I'll calm down a little bit.
