CouesWhitetail

Thanks for the report! I love to hear feedback on our sponsors. Amanda

I checked the admin logs and I see no record of any administrator changing his profile. Christian, you changed it yourself?? Amanda

I asked Ryan Steele, store manager for Mesa SW, and he said it's 5% for guns. And he wanted me to remind everyone that, like Doug mentioned, it's "up to 20% off" and of course there will be exceptions that apply to some stuff. Customers will be given more info on how the sale applies to certain items when they show up. Amanda

It's true. Sportsmans has been a good supporter of CW.com over the years. here is the ad that was in the paper:

We have four new sponsors for CouesWhitetail.com and I think they can provide some great services and products to our members. Dan Adler, owner of Diamond Outfitters, is a veteran Captain of the US Air Force and hunter ed instructor for AGFD classes. He is an avid hunter and dedicated supporter of the Tucson chapter of the RMEF. Dan has been hunting in AZ for 22 years and has several well-qualified guides that work with him. Learn more about his services by visiting his website. Wild Heritage Taxidermy, owned by Dale Robertson, is a new taxidermy shop in Young, AZ. Dale offers some very good work at great prices, so check out his website and see what he can do for you. Dale is fairly new to taxidermy, but spent 6 weeks at a training course and is dedicated to competing nationally with his work. Dale is also offering a completely donated shoulder mount to our Coues Buck Contest this year. Thank you Dale! Payson Outfitters, owned by Eric Santana, is based out of Payson but sells most of their products through their well-stocked website. You won't believe the variety of products they have for sale at good pricing and with FREE shipping. Eric told me he wants to make it so it's cheaper for you to order from him than to drive over to Cabela's or BassPro. So put him to the test and see what kind of deals he can make for you. Bear Mountain, owned by Ed Hightower, has been serving customers in Arizona for 22 years! Bear Mountain has a highly knowledgeable staff that loves to fish and hunt. They focus on providing great archery products, guns and ammo. Their highest priority is being helpful, knowledgeable, honest and fair. If they can't help you, they will find someone who can. Give them a call, check out the website or stop by their store in Mesa. Thank you to our new sponsors for their committment to helping support this website. Please remember to support those that support this site you all enjoy so much. In addition to paying for sponsorship and providing our members with great service, most of these new sponsors have agreed to make donations to our Coues Buck Contest, so they really are providing added value to the site. Thank you! Amanda

GREAT job Ilene!! That is so amazing! I know how tough it's been this year with a lack of much bugling going on. Nice job staying in the game! Hey, post some bigger pics if you have them. You don't have to size them down that small. Heck, I can barely read the CouesWhitetail.com on your shirt !! aren't Sherpa husbands the best? Amanda

Congratulations!! Look forward to the story. Amanda

You might also consider getting him a gift certficiate to buy stuff on CouesWhitetail.com....I just added that feature today. http://www.coueswhitetail.com/bookstore/gi...ertificates.htm Amanda PS, I deleted my other suggestion

Awesome! Congratulations! Love the dark antlers! Amanda

Great news! I am sure his family is greatly relieved! Amanda

Thanks for the introduction Ed. Hopefully people will feel free to contact Bear Mountain to help with their hunting equip needs. You can also ask Ed questions in the forum either by a direct post or by sending him a private message. Or just give him a call and speak to him directly. Amanda

My husband and I had to go to the Valley last night for an ADA meeting and stopped for dinner at Pacific Seafood Buffet on AZ Ave south of the 60 (awesome food, highly recommend them). We were seated right next to a guy and his family and the waitress introduced us and we started talking and lo and behold he is a member of CouesWhitetail.com and so we talked alot about deer. He was there with his lovely wife (Julie? hope I got it right, sorry if not) and two cute little boys. His wife wants to get a deer with her bow and so I am going to send her the link to the recent hunt story posted about Angie's first buck! Anyway, it was great to meet you and here is a crummy cell phone pic of the family. If anyone needs a tatoo...Sam is the man to talk to! He metioned something about doing a tatoo of a buck that the clients wife got. Cool..... I asked him to post a pic when it's done.

Yes, Bear Mountain is now a sponsor of CW.com, so when you shop there you are not only supporting them, but supporting CW.com. I will send the link to this thread to Ed so he can have some feedback on prices. All businesses have different overhead/expenses and charge what they have to to stay in business. Personally, I always prefer to give my money to a small store than a big box store even if they are cheaper. But that's just me. Amanda

Thank you Jesse. Amanda
