Finally!! I have been waiting for that forever! Amanda

LOL!! Amanda

Sponsor Payson Outfitters has just donated a Badlands Bino Pack to the prize list! Yeah! Please remember to support those that support your favorite website!!

Awesome story!! Thanks for sharing that Lance. That's some neat family history there. Amanda

Neat photo!! Thanks for posting it! Amanda

Guess now CnS will have to come share with everyone.... Amanda

I am very jealous as well!! I tried to get him to take me along as an extra camera person!! Amanda

For those that get technical about this stuff, I will let you know that the g2 and g3 on the right antler are not common base points (no figure eight at the base where they join), so then you have to declare one a nontypical point coming off the other. I declared the g2 to be normal and coming off the main beam, while the third tine is coming off the g2 and therefore is abnormal. here is an inside view of the 2nd and 3rd tine and hopefully shows how that 3rd doesn't really come off the main beam.

I can't decide if I should give you hints or not on how to score that funky cluster of antler at the base of the right beam. Or should it be part of the fun to try and guess how to do it?? Boone and Crockett actually came up with a way to measure it that they said has never been done on any other buck! How cool is that? Amanda

Awesome!! That's a great story. I remember Thurs night being in my house with all the rain and 60 mph and being VERY glad I wasn't out setting up a tent somewhere! Guess you stuck it out in the weather and got a nice reward! Congratulations on a great looking buck...he has a lot of character. Amanda

I hope her passing is easy and the family finds strength to endure it. Perhaps you should do a memorial post in the memorial section to honor her life. Amanda

I'll be adding this one to my new truck also. If I can only remember which hunting book I put it in to keep it safe. --Bill Maybe it's in the How to Hunt Coues book?? Amanda

How do you guys like this one? It's the combination of two stickers. The deer outline is one that Bill Quimby designed for me and I had made years ago but it wasn't until yesterday when Clay thought about adding it to the main big sticker that it got put together. Here is a pic of Clay's new sticker, what do you think??

Awesome...thanks. Amanda

Thanks for your thoughts on it. I will definitely reread the post. Guess I didn't read it carefully enough. FYI - Anytime anyone has a problem with a post, you can report the post to me. I can't read every post on here, so feel free to help police the forum by sending me a PM or using the report this post button which is located under every post on the left side. So if in the future you see an issue with something, just use the report button and it sends a note to all moderators. If you had used this report button with this thread on his first post, this whole thread probably would have gone more smoothly. And like I said I will go back and reread his initial post. Sorry if I missed an attack on someone here. Amanda

I may just do that. I have left it up now for the sake of Ian and allowing people to appreciate his buck. There are always two (or more) sides to every story and who ever knows the real truth since we all view this stuff through a perspective clouded by our own experiences. But fighting it out here in the forum does no one any good, and it robs Ian of a chance to enjoy sharing his hunt online. Amanda

Guys, Please take the fighting offline. I am tired of deleting posts in this thread. Do not use this forum to carry out fights/arguments. You can fight all you want elsewhere, but not here. Amanda

What should we bring? Side dishes? drinks? You are doing a brisket aren't you??? Amanda

You can try using the search feature and search for landscaping or something like that. At the moment, I know Ernesto Cibrian does landscaping, but he is in Yuma. PM him....Ernesto C Amanda

Brandon has asked me to post his hunt story and photos from his San Carlos Hunt. WOW! This is just an amazing hunt. I posted the story in the Hunt Story Section of the main site. The story includes pics of Mark Boulanger's old warrior buck. Here is the link! http://www.coueswhitetail.com/hunt_stories...n_mcdermott.htm Congratulations Brandon and Mark on some fine San Carlos bucks! Thanks for sharing your story with us! Amanda

Hehehe!! Guess that will fix you guys!!
