It'll take a little work to learn Az game, first suggestion is to buy good optics and a tripod to mount them on, then get on top of a mountain and start using them, preferably the NE facing slopes.

Drive up to Portal and spend the day glassing up Cave Creek Canyon and hiking some of the trails. You will see whitetails and you will start to get a search image. Once you have seen some, you will know what to look for in areas where they are hunted.

Ash canyon is pretty much moonscape since the Monument Fire. It will be a couple of years until there is enough growth to attract any coues. There are plenty in Miller Canyon, but they don't call coues "ghost deer" for nothing. A guaranteed place to see some is Ramsey Canyon. Unfortunately a lot of the area is private and the residents are feeding them, but I can't think of too many times I haven't seen any deer in that canyon when I go in there. Just don't hit one driving in there.
