112coues Report post Posted January 6, 2013 I have a question that some of you guys might be able to answer. I have an old set of antlers that an older gentleman gave me, and i would like to know for sure if they are coues or not. he told me it was killed in new mexico about 20 years ago. but im not convinced that they are coues antlers. is there any way i could send them in to someone and get dna results to tell me for sure. it would be worth it to me because they score 152" .

CouesWhitetail Report post Posted January 6, 2013 Call Roy Lopez and ask him. He did some research on coues DNA. http://www.rmrs.nau.edu/people/rlopez/ Also call the Boone and Crockett office. They have been talking about adding DNA testing for big bucks in the coues category to make sure they are coues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coues Sniper Report post Posted January 6, 2013 Hard to be 100% from photos, but that looks ALL whitetail to me. Now just have to figure out if its Coues or Eastern . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZbowhntr Report post Posted January 11, 2013 I don't think there is a doubt if it is whitetail or not. I think the doubt is if it is eastern or coues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
