I checked the paper work...... it said accurate to 1/2 yard....... not 1/2 the distance.... ..... Hmmm...... wonder if that still applies after it gets bounced off the rocks a few times.

Coues 'n' Sheep replied to COOSEFAN's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona
Way to go, Jim! You are an important contributer on this site! I second what AzP&Y said. -
The man is shooting a Matthews.........I believe him Yep Coosefan you are correct. - no matter how hard I bash good ol BINO (coues n sheep) and how much I rip on his Crappy ol Matthews --I am very unhappy to say it but he can shoot those groups. Gino-- send my five bucks to me or else!!!! OH yeah-- The TRUTH baby. The real deal in bows!!!! Do you take checks, Troy?????

That is a Wicked looking deer......and a great one for the 'Freaks in theWoods' thread! Too bad the velvet looks ruined..... bet the taxidermist can strip it and spray that fake stuff on though..... What is the story behind that buck? .....archery,rifle, AZ, Mex,......etc.

I think there is a guy in Prescott Valley or Dewey that works on binos..... I don't know if he only works on the glas part or if he can fix the housing too...... ...... That really sucks, man...... I am hurtin' for ya..... I'll try to get that guy's phone number........ -
Hey now!!!! Don't hate on my bow...... actually I shot that group, with a witness, using my Q2 XL.... I can't shoot'em as tight with my Switchback..... about the size of an orange or a grape fruit at those ranges. That ol' Q2 XL is about 276 fps, but very forgiving!! I love that bow...... use her as a back up to the ol' Switchback now. I really enjoyed shooting my Switchback until I shot the XT... ... I'd kinda like to have one, but the two I have are way to good to go off and buy another..... When the weather warms a bit and my shootin' buddies & I start getting tuned up and then I can hang with anybody that shoots hunting sites.... .... I have too...... the guys I shoot with are brutal!!! They would verbally abuse me to Death!!!! And Matty.... Thanks man....... It makes me all warm inside too know that I am the Hero of anyone at all!!!!

Now That is one Bitter point of view...... Your glass must be half empty! Let me try to explain it to ya this a way..... a new state of the art bow................$730.00 bow accesories................................$375.00 the best new arrows.........................$110.00 Shooting a 3" group at 110 yards.......PRICELESS! Anyhow, I would like to shoot that new Hoyt...... I'd be really impressed if it is as sweet as Matty says..... ...... I'll be checkin' one out one of these days.......soon. My buddies are always on me to keep tryin' the hoyt bows out..... they just don't feel "perfect" to me.... I have shot that Drenalin from Mathews.... light weight, but jumpy.....and probably not as forgiving as my Switchback..... You know where I am going with this right....... Mathews Switchback XT........ Shoot it.... you'll buy it. It is really that good.... it is even better than my Switchback. Ya know..... as much as I promo for Mathews on this site....... do you think they would send me $.01 of endorcement money????? Heck No!!!!

best custom built rifle
Coues 'n' Sheep replied to fisher_hunt's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
Years ago I sent my "right out of the box" 300 Wby mag to a place in Michigan called Answer Products had them go through it top to bottom.....they did work to the action, trigger, barrel, pillars & bedded the stock, and the pad & break (The Answer System). Their break adds 1 3/4" to the barrel length and looks like it grew there...... It is one of the nicest breaks I have ever seen and it kicks less than a .243!!! Anyhow, I think I gave them about $900.00 bucks for all that they did and that gun shoots tighter groups than any other gun I own. I would love to have a Christensen Arms 300 Wby mag.... but to have it build the way I would want it is about $4,400.00..... ..... sooo when I do get another 300 Wby I think I will do it in similar fashion. Unless my wife Forces me to buy that Christensen Arms one that I want......... ...... Ok I'll stop dreaming now..... ........ hey... it could happen! -
If you turn the STS upside down like I mentioned before you can use them both at the same height. Also, I have used the ATS and I have a helluva time finding the critters with it....... Probably me but it seems 10 times harder that a way..... C-S if you would turn the ATS upside down like you do with your STS you would be able to tip your head back like you do with that beer can and I bet you would do great Ahhh Soooo....... .... Everybody Funny...... Now you funny, too!!!!! Guess I'll have to try that next time you break yours out and we happen to be drinkin', too!!!

Jim is there any way for that to work on our Swaro scopes????? I would be interested if so......

Monster Bobcat!

There was a rumor 10-15 yrs ago that there was a black jaguar living down on the Verde River. Where the East Verde meets the Verde..... probably just a rumor.... I talked to an old hippy that lived in the Wilderness down there for a couple of months and he swore that he saw it and heard it...... said it the scariest sound he ever heard..... but, he was an old hippy..... maybe he was smokin' too much of the ol' wacky tabacky out there in them thar hills.... I sure would love to harvest a jag..... no rug though...... full body..... That would be an Amazing mount!!! I don't think that you could bring one back into the country even if you legally harvest one in some other country though... ... come to think of it.... they don't hunt them anywhere in South America do they??? -
Looks Great, Matt! I thank you for the second pic as well..... On cats the face makes or breaks it... Nice mount!

Hey, Jim.... there is a little set screw on the sid of your scope (black knob)...... well there is one on the 65, so the 80 should have it.... ... anyhow...... that knob loosens the barrel of the scope. I have spun mine all the way around (upside down) and now I can use it at the same height as my 15x56's....... looks little different but works well. I prefer the STS 65 HD because it is very bright and packable. The HD makes it "nearly" as bright as a regular 80 mm scope and a lot less weight. We tested an STS 65 HD against the 80 mm Swaro I used to have and at dark we lost light minutes apart. Great scope.... I highly recomend.
