    2012 AZ Coues

    2011 AZ Youth Hunt

    Sports has condensed my girls fall break into a whopping 5 days and even though this was their first deer hunt, going to california ranked pretty high on the things to do list as well. they came to a little compromise and gave two days to the hunt and three to the beach- seemed fair to me...

    AZ Hornage

    A couple of friends and I made a trip this weekend to check out some old haunts- obviously the elk have found a new place to winter this year but, there was still a few leftovers from the last couple of seasons to make it a good trip. Had a brain cramp and didn't get any ATL's. Truth be told...

    2010 AZ Coues Hunt- long read

    During 2009 my dad found a coues buck that pretty much drove him to the brink of insanity. Throughout the summer he watch this buck grow a bigger and better set-o-antlers and as October approached, his dream buck went A-Rod and disappeared. We ended up taking some decent deer that year but he...

    To begin, there is no perfect pack. Like anything else its gotta work for you- I had determined what was most important to me and and after months of research I decided on the Dragon Slayer by Mystery Ranch. My number one factor was comfort- I'm built like a trekking pole with shoulders and...

    2009 AZ Coues (pic heavy)

    It was a tough one fellas- We had found a handful of B&C bucks during our scouting trips and had a plan laid out that would have us and a couple of them back in camp by the end of the weekend- as with most coues hunts in this unit, we hiked a lot, saw very few deer, dropped the hammer on the...

    Opening morning AZ Coues jack stomping

    Without going into to too much crazy detail- My dad, Uncle and I were lucky enough to all draw coues tags together this year. Scouted hard for months and decided that although it would cause us great amounts of pain, there were some good bucks in this particular canyon and it would be worth the...

    9 days and it's over

    I'm more of a reader than a poster but the past 10 days have been to good let pass. Because of a late coues whitetail obligation I was unable to hunt on my own until the last weekend of 2005 which on 12/31/05 I havested my first nice mule deer with a bow to close out the year on a good note...
