I finally came over to the dark side and filled my 1st rifle tag this weekend on a awesome coues buck. I decided to backpack in wendsday and do alittle more scouting in a spot I was planning to hunt. I saw alot of great bucks Wednesday and Thursday but only 1 that I was debating on chasing. So after talking with my brother inlaw and a few friends I decided to back out and go help him chance a buck opening morning that hes been chasing. We had a great opening morning seeing a bunch of bucks but we never located his target buck. I packed all my stuff into his spot so I decided to stay another night and help him. We saw a few great bucks the next morning but never laid eyes on his target buck. We decided to take a break and eat something and we tried to come up with a game plan on what we could do to try and cover the area alittle differently. While scanning for new vantage points my brother inlaw spotted some deer way back in another canyon right below the skyline. I grabbed my spotter and could tell he was a great buck. They were alittle over 1000 yards out but across 2 canyons. So as soon as they topped over we kind of though that was the end of that. Alittle over a hour goes by and we have been joking about how if they would of just bedded on our side I'd try and make a move. Sure enough I look up there and I see a small buck. We start picking the hill apart and I see the big buck again. I asked him if he minded if I went after him since I was in there with him. He joked and said sure just dont miss. I headed down and closed the gap. I got the rifle set up and waited for him to get up out of his bed. I got a good range and dialed in the 6.5 to 480 yards and waited for what seemed like forever. The buck finally got up and I got into thw scope. The angle was so steep I couldnt get steady. So I decided to readjust my pack and get better shooting position. The buck stepped put of his bed and started feeding. I tool a deep breath and started squeezing the slack out of the trigger. BOOM the gun went off and I quickly chambered another round. I got back in the scope and couldn't find him. After scanning for a bit my phone started buzzing. I recived a text from my brother inlaw who was on the hill above me said "you dropped him, and he rolled about 7 times down the hill but we got him. " It was such a awesome hunt glad I was able to share it with my family and hunting partner.

Yeah they need to clean up their city and campus for sure

Google Nogales North. It comes up first

I just call it what it is, the " Liberal indoctrination center" That's not the wind, it's the sound of Tucson sucking.

took a wrong turn on saturday night ended up right by U of A, my first time being off the freeway in tucson. Poverty.

Who cares ?? let them lay in their bed.

Back when grandpa asked you to do something, was wise not to argue or dottle.

Saw this on FB

Selling a literal BRAND NEW pair of Leica HD-B 3000 (NEW MODEL) Binoculars. Never been taken out of the package, obviously the warranty card has been left untouched/not completed. Save yourself a few bucks, $3000 retail. I know there is a sale on these now, These are lower than that price muchless the tax and/or shipping cost. $2450 and they are yours.

Fantastic buck. Congratulations!

I was "not drawn" for "no hunt". With a double negative, does that mean I was actually drawn??? 😉

Sweet pistol. Good luck....

24a spring turkey and 24b archery pig.

Scope is guaranteed to turn about half those coues does into spikes!

Just placed an order...Thanks for the Coupon Code

Haven’t punched it yet. Passed up on a small 3 point twice now. Starting to see them more in the burn now. Today was miserable with the wind. Hardly any deer were active. Tomorrow with the cold weather should help.

I keep waiting for my photo to end up on here. Every game cam I find gets a funny photo. Never molested, but they have to go, "Who the F is THAT guy?"

I have 20 points here and 4 in Wyoming. A friend has gifted me meat twice. I'd rather eat that than deer or elk.

That's not how it works. You don't add one point to your total to see where you fall in terms of max points and/or the bonus pass....otherwise there wouldn't be applicants listed as having "zero" points on the draw reports--they would be listed as having one point.

Just don’t try this...doesn’t work so well. College friend of mine’s kid.

I know I caused a great deal of whining a few years back on here when I said that if I wound an animal, my tag is punched. Many disagree.

Thought I’d share some of our success in 13b this year. It was a phenomenal year for antler growth and we’re sure looking forward to the rifle hunts. Good luck to all with tags this year.

We didn't have a lot of hope this year due to my wife tearing her mcl and ACL 2 weeks before the hunt. After a miss on the first stand, we regrouped and moved about 500yds up the mountain. The box call brought this guy in strutting. He paused at 65yds and she let him have it. We were done before 630am.
