Hey guys my wife's sister wants to mount a little set of antlers for their house but they dont hunt. Anyone have a little couse or mule deer set they would part with? on the skull would be less work but sheds would be fine too. Brian 623 693-3205

My brother dropped his elk last year at 450 yards with his .270. My dad used his 300 RUM. But I use my 30-06 for everything so hopefully i will get the chance in about 12 days to try it out on a bull in unit 10.

+1 Its hard enough to sneak up on a coues when your trying and It is easy to just push them over the rigde before you get in sight of them if you are hiking. also 30A could just suck. I havent hunted it.

I can remember the first time a shot a spike. I was praying please be a buck.. I know I saw horns... I was 14 and after I shot I started doubting my judgement. and he was not as small as that. 3 inches each side.

I headed out from phoenix at 9pm on Thursday night with my grandpa on his 78th birthday and got to our "camp" at about 230 Friday morning. We were glassing at first light and watched deer all morning but couldn’t find a Coues buck on Friday. My 2 brother-in-laws got to camp at 930 Friday night and I got them all up at 5am Saturday morning. We al got on the quads and headed out but I could tell we were leaving a little late. When the light was good we were not yet to where I planned on glassing but I saw a nice ridge with a view and pulled off. Within 5 minutes my Brother-in-law spotted a bear and he distracted us for a minute as we all took a look. When I started glassing again I saw a buck about 100 yards below where the bear crossed the ridge. We watched him as he went behind a tree and he stayed there bedded down. We made a plan and I set off down the nasty canyon and up the other side to a ridge about 200 yards west of the deer. I kept looking for the deer but I couldn’t locate him as I hiked higher and higher. Finally i got to a good spot where I could see the shade of the tree he saw in and sat down and got out the shooting sticks. I looked up to see the back and horns of the deer heading down the ridge... I blew it. I radioed to my Grandpa and they didn't see him get up so I said start looking because he is on the move. They spotted him as he went down into the canyon. I walked across the ridge and disappointed started the daunting hike back to my family but taking the same path down that the deer took. I kept looking over the other to the other side and when I was almost to the bottom I looked up again and saw the deer!! He was a little over 1/2 way back up the other side. I went to my knees and pulled off the shot. I saw the deer do a back flip and land in the brush. I did it!!! I finally downed a mature Coues. And I didn’t have to carry him down and up that nasty ridge. I told my family what area he was and they walked over him and shortly found him. I was then able to finish my hike but the ridge was so steep and loose I was so exhausted I had to stop and rest 20 yards from the deer!!!! I took a drink and caught my breath and made the last push up.

So I boiled out the skull. It took longer than I thought it would but I am happy with the results.
-
Great Job. I know its a coues but it's horns look muley. could it be a hybrid?
-
My family was on the other side of the canyon watching me come down. when I saw the buck on their side I shot him. Saw him do a back flip in my scop and I yealled.. WHoooHooooo!!!!!. I knew he was down and down hard. The second thing I yelled was "did I shoot him in the head?" THe last 2 bucks I shot was in the head.... I jumped 1 and it went in the knek and out the eye. the other buck I missed and shot his jaw....before I downed him with a second shot also in the head and not on purpose..... I think my scope was off hard up and to the left

Furthest south part of unit 27. The canyons were wicked. had to be a nice buck to start thinking of shooting.

I am thinking about buying a tag for my 27 hunt this weekend. Last year we saw lots..... of sign but I havent seen the bear yet. Maybe i will run into him or glass him up. -
I can't wait to be on the mountain. I can leave till tomorrow night. I will get to my spot at about 2 in the morning Friday and will sleep a few hours in the seat of my truck before the big weekend.
-
Nice Job!!! I hope you left one in there for the late hunt for me. Are they all busted up again this year?
-
Thanks for the video.

Find another bull to stick?

IN 5BN on Andersons Mesa I alwasy seem to get turned around. the first time I went up there for a cow hunt my dad gave me his gps and told me to keep it with me, I used it too. you know your backwards when you dont really trust the gps and then find yourself back at camp before you know it.... Gps said go left but i was sure i was supposed to go right good thing i listened.

Ok, I got a tag for Coues this year in 27. We have hunted this unit about 4 times and I have yet to come up with a decent Coues. I have shot 2 bucks but they were lucky to have eye guards... Any advice on location?
-
Thanks for the info. I wish I had time this year to spend a few more days scouting and check out a few of those spots. If I am lucky I will be out this weekend but My wife is feeling like crud "she’s pregnant" so its harder to leave her with my girls. My Brother-in-laws are going up on the 26th and me that night after class and will be hunting on the 27th. We are going in on 3 quads and going to get about as deep as we can get going north from Martinez ranch road. We have taken several bucks out of there maybe I can get my new scope on a mature buck. My brother-in-laws are after their first bucks so they won’t be so picky they will shoot any buck they get the chance at. Last year I took my little brother in-law in there for the Jr. hunt and saw lots of mule deer to shoot at but he couldn't quite get it done. this year I am going to bring some shooting sticks or something to help him hold the gun steady. Me and my older Brother-in-law had the 27 Coues and hardly got the chance to hunt. the arctic cat prowler kept shorting out fuses then a wheel fell off and crippled us. So I will leave that piece of junk with my brother... the 3 quads should give us a better chance to hunt this year. Its going to be fun I cant wait to start hunting.

We used to hunt 23 a lot and my dad pulled some nice coues out of 23. We used to hunt south east of Punkin Center in a range my Dad always called the Haystacks. We could alwasy find coues.

Mule deer or Coues deer?

Cant wait for the 27th. Just have to dial in the rifle with the new scope.
