CouesWhitetail

Here is a great way to help support wildlife conservation and show that support with your license plate. AZ Sportsmen for Wildlife Conservation receives proceeds from the special wildlife conservation plate. That money is then used for a variety of projects, including wildlife habitat projects or education and hunter recruitment projects. For more information on the plate, visit this link: http://www.arizonasportsmenforwildlifeconservation.org/license_plate.html It's a beautiful plate, don't you think?

Looks great!! Did you just get it or did you already have one?

Thank you for the report Leroy and thank you for letting us know about your seminar. I will add it to the calendar on the forum.

Here you go....these show it better I think.

I have a good connection for you in Alabama if you are interested, shoot me an email amanda@coueswhitetail.com

Sounds like a great family trip!!! Thanks for sharing it!

Big Move!! I hate to see you go.....Arizona will miss you Christian! Make sure you post your adventures in Nebraska here!

Got it, thank you!!

I believe the game warden already checked the kill out....I received a pic of that buck from AGFD...AWESOME deer! Thanks Eric for getting permission to post the pic and congrats to the guy that found that giant buck! Can you imagine walking up on that one!

Got it!! thank you Tucson John! anyone wishing to donate can do so using the yellow donate button located on the main coueswhitetail.com page in the lefthand margin, under the menu. Or just log into your paypal acct and send the money to amanda@coueswhitetail.com. FYI - to use the paypal donate button you do not have to have a paypal acct. If you don't like doing online payments, you can always email me for more options.

I think it's easy enough to set up, I just haven't done it. I like keeping everything as free as possible for members, but perhaps having an Optional premium membership is a good idea...thanks!

You might recall we just finished up a donation drive for Phoenix Children's Hospital and we will likely do more of those. An auction might be a good way to make those more fun. I am not sure if there are any laws governing online auctions...anyone know? I think TJ's point is that if you are making money off this site, why not donate a small portion back to the site to help support it? I know I sure appreciate it when people help out. Every year I give away thousands of dollars in donations, prizes, stickers and such to CouesWhitetail.com members and to other conservation groups/charities. I am happy to do all that because I think it makes the site more fun and gives us a bigger purpose by helping other groups/charities. I don't think TJ is saying everyone has to donate, but if you feel you want to, it sure helps. Anyone who donates can always designate where they want the money to go (ie, to the annual coues buck contest, or to the next charity drive, or to a fishing tournament, or coueswhitetail.com get together or to just general support of the site).

Thank you Dick!

I have put a cam out for turkeys and I focused on finding a patch of ground that greened up early in the spring. It was easy to find because I was in a rocky lower elevation area. But if you are in classic ponderosa pine habitat you might look for some natural trails into and out of open areas that should green up first in the spring....turkeys are naturally drawn to that type of area

Those skulls look great! Good tip on freezing the skull too, I never thought of that. I gave Cole my buck from Alabama to clean. As others have mentioned, he went out of his way to meet me so I could get the skull to him. And I had to change the date of delivery at the last minute too. He was very accomodating, thanks Cole!

I have a 1990, a 1992 and a 2000 jeep cherokee (the old style, not grand cherokees). One has over 300,000 miles on it, one is about to turn 200,000 and the third I think is approaching 200k. All of them have been worked very hard in the field for years and can take a serious beating. They take rough roads a lot better than a truck. All my truck owning friends can't believe how much faster you can ride comfortably in a jeep compared to a truck. Hope you find a perfect one for you.

Glad you are happy with the cameras and service!

I have hunted the 36s a few times as well as doing some of the clean up projects down there. I never felt unsafe or had any problems. I have camped alone and in large groups.

Thanks for your recent donation of 10% of the sale price of an item you sold here in the classifieds TJ! I sure appreciate your support!

Congratulations and thanks for sharing the pic!

Good to know he got them back finally! Thanks for the followup!

Thanks for posting the pics! I bet it was even more beautiful to see it in person!

hehehe...cool pic...good luck to everyone in the draw!

It was a great time! I got to speak with lots and lots of CouesWhitetail.com members which is always a treat. There were several members that I saw but didn't get to talk to because it was so busy at times, but I appreciate everyone taking the time to stop by and chat. Sold lots of shirts and gave away lots of stickers! Sorry to many of you who wanted shirts but I was out of the XLs and larger....I will be restocking in the next two weeks. Thanks for the support everyone!

So who is going? I will be there Thurs - Sunday helping at the AZ Deer Association booth and with CouesWhitetail.com stuff for sale. So if you need any stickers, hats, tshirts, knives, videos, books, trail cameras, wilderness athlete products, etc, come on by! Look for the awesome deer display near the fish tank to find the booth. Also, Bowhunter4life has four free day passes to the ISE. Contact him directly to get tickets (click on his name to contact him). The show is at Cardinals stadium this weekend.
