    It's right here waiting for you!!!
  6. When you come home safe and in one piece you have to say you made the right decision. I think now that I have seen this scenario up here I have more thoroughly thought through the possible consequences much more so than if I was thrown into this situation out in the field.

    Glassed up another lion in 36 -c

    I got down to my area with a half hour of light the day before opening day. I was just about to set up to glass for a little bit when I saw something walk over a hill. I thought it was a lion but I never could say for sure. I found a pretty fresh lion kill the year before very close to there. This is in the southern part of 36C also. I would love to help out the deer population down there.

    Location of Coues in Mexico

    I thought the same thing.
  9. Every time I go down to Mexico I just love to see how awesome the country is and I find myself driving without looking at the road. I am way to busy staring at the neat looking country that looks like a coues hunters paradise. As I get farther down I always wonder where the lines could be drawn on what is coues country and what isn't. Normally I only head down as far as Obregon, which I know there are coues in the mountains around there. I know Jim has hunted around there and I have seen shed antlers in the mercado downtown. I have been to San Carlos/Guaymas several times and always wondered if there were coues in the hills right next to the Sea of Cortez. I have talked to people in San Carlos that have seen deer but wouldn't know a coues from a muley. I guess I was skeptical because of the elevation more than anything. Well, I got a good answer from a few videos from San Carlos. Check out the shed laying on the ground at the 1:20 point in the video. That would be a very nice buck. ! Here's another one. Some WT does on trailcam starting at the 1:17 point. I think it would be amazing to be glassing coues country and look out and see the ocean also.

    Yes, they are diseases. I gave up on the golf disease and am fully committed to the hunting disease now.

    Golf Clubs

    Know somebody that wants golf clubs for Christmas??? I've been playing about once a year for the last 2 years or so. I would rather spend my extra time or money on hunting or other outdoor activities. I purchased these clubs brand new in Fall of 2006. They are blue dot steel shaft. Driver and 3 wood are graphite shaft regular flex. Set includes Ogio stand bag, G5 putter, driver, 3 wood, G5 3-PW irons and I'll give you whatever golf balls I have. Everything is in great shape. Woods have matching serial numbers and irons also have matching serial numbers. I would like to get $400 OBO. Pm, text or call me. Daryl 480-458-7263

    Check Out This Monster

    It scares me and I know it's not real . I just wanted somebody else to say it before me . I have a Navajo friend who swears he's seen a skin-walker. Either way, I always have a flashlight with me.
  13. Dang, you went past the 100" mark in a big way. Way to get out when everything was trying to get in your way.

    Four tags up (Link to Story Added)

    You most certainly dont HAVE to. Dont pay attention to that crap. Have fun, shoot what you want! Its YOUR tag not someone elses! Great job! +1 It's not the size of the deer that makes the hunt. I would be thrilled with any one of those bucks. Congrats to you and your buddies.
  15. You're right, it's easier to type out a response than to actually do it. Did they know you were there??? That would factor into the decision, too. Besides, if they think they are being shot at they are going to hightail it out of there or hunker down. I have a hard time believing that a person that believes he/she is being shot at isn't going to run, especially when they may not even be sure where it came from. If they don't know where it came from you shoot the deer and stay out of sight. I know, I know, easy to type it out because I wasn't there. But if I felt the situation was right, I'm shooting. I have come face to face with illegals. I've seen 50 guys walking single file through the desert and I've found 1 dead body. I've watched the BP helicopter and many trucks and agents do a big drug bust that we ended up right in the middle of way back in Peck Canyon. So it's not like I'm just spouting out a response, either. As uncomfortable as you feel seeing them below you, they would feel it a thousand fold when that bullet rips through the air above their heads. Don't get me wrong and my apologies if I didn't convey my answer appropriately. Please don't take any personal offense. By the picture posted in post #1. Yes, He clearly knows our location....#2 these are not your everyday migrates period... Don't worry, I didn't take any offense. I'm just young and dumb and quick to spout off an arrogant response sometimes Really, I'd probably run and scream like a girl. And if they're looking at you, then yeah, I'm not shooting either. The last thing I want is to be shot at. I believe that there are certain situations that are absolutely impossible to imagine unless you have been through it. I was robbed at gunpoint just about 10 years ago and as it was happening I was 100% sure I was going to die. It was an unreal experience. Point being, I wasn't there, there's no way to say how I would've reacted.
  16. June, I don't mean to sound as though I'm scoffing at the situation. And I don't mean to imply you didn't make the right call, either. I have never been in a situation like you have shown us and I hope I never am.

    Is this what you mean, Lark?????
  19. If it's me and I have a shot at the buck I'm taking it. These guys with their valuable cargo are NOT going to go after somebody who is trying to shoot a buck. Their job is to get from point "A" to "B" with their cargo. Why in the world would they go in the direction of shooting??? They're probably going to pick up their pace in the direction they are heading. Either way, I'm shooting at the buck.

    Golf Clubs

    Yep, I hardly use them anymore. It just cost too much to play. When the rates are down it's 115 degrees outside. When I was a teenager I would walk 18 in July like it was nothing. Now I only want to play when it's nice outside, but I would much rather spend the money on hunting gear. It was the craigslist ad that got the responses.

    Location of Coues in Mexico

    Thanks for the information everyone. Jim, that shed must be a true monster since it is a pretty fair distance south of Hermosillo. What you say makes a lot of sense also, because all the antlers I saw in Obregon in the downtown mercado were very small. I absolutely love going to Mexico. I will be going to San Carlos next year and I will definitely be taking along the binos, tripod and a camera. I know things are rough down there but I would still love to have a place down there when I am older. My wife is from Obregon and her parents still live there. My kids know both English and Spanish and they love spending time down there with their other cousins and grandparents. Makes for a good excuse, huh?

    BIG GAME TOMORROW NIGHT

    They never mentioned it but I watched in super slow motion and the second extra point that Zendejas missed was so low coming off his foot that it looks like it skips off the back of one of his lineman before it even got to the defenders. I think both teams are going to be a lot better next year. Foles is one heck of a quarterback and I believe they said ASU only has 13 Seniors on their entire roster. It should be another great game next year.

    BIG GAME TOMORROW NIGHT

    WOW, what a game!!!! You really can't pin it on the kicker though. U of A should have had about 5 picks in that game. Both teams left it all out on the field and it's hard to ask for more than that. I'm an ASU fan but I've got to give props to Foles for sticking around to shake Erickson's hand after the game. Or maybe he was just asking about a possible transfer next season .
