Scott- You bet - I'm confirmed for Alaska July 02-12th 2008 - SO I BETTER get some flies tied! Thank you so much for sending them down when the season closes. I'll get you my address and send that to you. I'll take some pics of the flies and send you some because you are in some of the most pristine trout fishing country in the world! Summertime in Montana! Hope you are enjoying the job and Happy Holidays to you and your family. Awesome birds by the way. Always enjoy the pictures, they along with the story make for fantastic reading. I thought about you this last weekend, when I was helping a friend try and get his coues! MEARNS everywhere! Doug AzP&Y

We didn't have bowhunters in our unit last weekend, but MEARNS hunters blasting every chance they got. BOOM BOOM BOOM. Whoopin it up carrying on... Time to move to the next canyon. Congrats on your wife tagging out.. AzP&Y

Nice find for sure. Looks like there is some overlap in that unit. If there are does- bucks are sure not to be far off... AzP&Y

Hey Casey- I agree I think he was an old heavy horned buck. I'll be down there next week to check out the one down below that made all of the racket and see what is left down there. My buddy has the 34a Dec hunt so we're going to be there to hunt and I'm going to see what may be left from that lion/deer exchange...In a way I hope the deer scrambled loose... but it's always nice to find a coues rack. I may walk 100 more miles and not find a coues rack like the one I found in Feb of this year. But that's what makes it a great experience and spending time in the desert... Good luck in 36b and with a little more than a week , you must be off the hook excited! AzP&Y Doug

hbu I found this one in Feb 07 - real nice lion kill that came home with me... AzP&Y

Sunrise Ski resort- picture taken Dec 01 at 452pm - Let it snow - let it snow- let it snow.... AzP&Y

Colorado Ultra Mag, I think if you are into reading good books about coues there are 3 that are Mandatory. I'm going to throw you a picture since you like that format. You've posted some good questions so keep up the good work and you are on the right trail. I think you need to get that 40lb pack down to 30, but that is a different story 1)How to Hunt Coues Deer - Duwane Adams & Tony! 2)Coues white tailed deer- An annotated bibliography- Richard Ockenfels (You can buy this book through Arizona game and fish department) 3)Deer of the Southwest - Jim Heffelinger (az game and fish biologist) ** Went to jim's talk at bass pro shops and it was OUTSTANDING! I search for any book on coues and there aren't that many these days, but more to come , I'm sure! AzP&Y Doug

Curmudge, Yep they are for real... I've been sporting the plate for a couple of years. I especially like the involvement with az ELK AND az FLYCASTERS. I can't say for sure that every $$$ goes exactly where it is supposed to but like the plate says "CONSERVING WILDLIFE" You'll probably get a few hand waves on the road from fellow 'sportsman' and besides it's a cool plate. Good Luck - AzP&Y

HBU, Congrats! The book will be going out right away! Enjoy! I will be listing a 3rd edition copy , signed by the authors soon! I'll post it on here as well! Thanks for your business! AzP&Y

Listed a copy of bowhunting in Arizona on ebay tonight. 2nd edition copy -1985- Hardback with dustcover and Mylar cover. A collectible book that is hard to find. Please email me any questions. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=280175199242 Nice Christmas Gift for that AZ bowhunter! AzP&Y Doug

Hey Amanda, Yes, I broke down and bought a rifle from Ron. He was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. I had mentioned to him that I saw his donations through CWT. He brought me over to the scope and range finder to show me first hand what is at stake for the contest I'm not sure if he was the cheapest in the valley, but the rifle I bought had a sale tag and he then took another $25.00 off that price. He also has MANY MANY rifles and tons of accessories in addition to a professional gunsmith on-site. I opted for the Tikka T3-lite (synthetic) in the 30/06 caliber. Almost bought the .270 but feel really good about the choice. I put a Leupold scope put on it and they lazer bore sited the rifle at no additional cost. Going with Red Rabbits' recommendation for shells and I'll tell you how it shoots this Saturday I don't have a coues tag, but I know where a couple of LIONS could be in trouble AzP&Y

Same to you and all of the CWT members and their Families! AzP&Y

Since you put the arrow where you did - he ain't going anywhere- great shot and Fantabulous first bull! Congrats! AzP&Y

Awesome- looks like some steep country out that way! Nice to have a master glasser (Mr. Adams) along- great combo job! AzP&Y Doug
