Good luck, if it stays true to form, antlerless hunters will have everything spread out for miles.

Great looking truck Vowell!!!

According to the latest talk with game and fish...market value was added a couple years back so a buddy could pay for gas, food etc...this is different than it had been for many years..

Depends on the unit and where the big bulls are. That being said the lower stuff is what I like..

I own a 350 Yamaha 2 wheel drive and I go about anywhere I want, We spend the winters pulling the kids around in a sled in the snow with a 2 wheel drive, I'm sure a 4x4 is needed sometimes, but not as often as you might think, and that is from someone who lives in the mtns.

It is real, local guy decided to get it out whole so he could skin and cape hanging. Wasn't going far

BTW..I've never even heard of CouesD but was glad he showed up to tell his story even though he was destroyed by some because of it...

It's kinda of funny, well no it isn't. A few select disagree with someone's choices of how to hunt and we run a Coues deer hunter ( BTW a hunter who has killed some good bucks) off of a Coues deer website.. Nicely done,I wonder how many Coues bucks have been killed by those running at the mouth. Probably not many....

I hate to be that guy also,but it may be the vortex scope. I wanted so bad to like mine but finally put one of my other proven scopes on and it shot lights out.. I've had friends with similar results..

And seriously?? Make a bunch of money???? How does that happen.....???

What would keep this guy from slapping "his" watermark on their photo? This is the side of hunting I know nothing about. It wouldn't but it takes quite a bit of time to photoshop the previous watermark or logo off and make it look good.

Great job!! Way to get it done..

BTW I hate watermarks I just see why people do it...

Hence IMO one of the reasons for watermark...stupid,stupid people.!!

We've been watching it and my buddy Jeremiah and myself put our watermark on it so no one will claim it as theirs.

I am just guessing, but I would guess the hunter shares his story in his home state or home forum, or home whatever it may be. Surprising to many on here would be the concept that these hunters, or shooters or whatever you want to call them don't do it for the fame or Glory. I get photos from Shane (killed the other big Coues) fairly regularly asking me not to share them because he doesn't go on hunts to make himself look like a great white hunter. He does it because he loves to hunt and has the means to hunt in many places. He does it with his brothers, family and close friends. I was extremely glad to see him post the pictures and story on this website. Az was and probably to some extent is still his home. Many of the other auction hunters are from the midwest or East or somewhere far from Az and they don't feel the need to share them with us. Again just speculation, on my part. I too would like to hear the story on all of these giant animals killed, I am just guessing on why we don't.

Actually I hear the story on quite a few of these, ( I didn't on this buck though) just remember only a very small % of hunters are on Coueswhitetail.com, or post info on CW.com

If you find a giant buck and or bull and don't want the auction tag holder to kill it then don't pimp it out. pretty easy. I'm sure he got a pretty good paycheck and decided it was worth it.

I was never a real big fan of watermarks but the last couple of years I've received texts that had my animals in them claiming they were from somewhere else, or someone elses....My 190 UT Buck (alive pic) was "stolen" off my Facebook last month and was passed around until it got to a buddy of mine and they tried to pass it off as a Buck they took a picture of on the Navajo. I have since changed my mind and the watermark doesn't bother me. Giant buck

I have a Stihl 660 if you have the 880 I'll trade you.

AT&T has very poor coverage in the Clay Springs area, even worse than Verizon if you can imagine that, the only other option is Cell One up here. I'm not sure how they do in this area.

Nothing official about the post, but hey I'll play along. Bowtech Experience.

Great job on making some memories, those are some of the greatest times with my family!!!! Here is a picture of Mike photobombing my wife!!!

I'm in the market for upgraded glass. I have a pair of 2005 15x56 I will let my son use or have as a backup. If you were to get a new set of glass what would you get???? 15x56 HD or the 12x50 EL Thanks.
