CouesWhitetail

Thanks Doug for posting the map. Here is a larger scale map and a smaller one with GPS coordinates (in UTMs) for the road to turn onto from the highway in case someone wants that. Hope to see some new faces up there as well as those of you I have already met. FYI - the mormon lake archery shoot will be happening at the same time and so there is always the option to go over there to shoot if you like. It's closeby. Also, Jim White will be over there selling tripods and tripod heads and such, so if you want to see some gear, it's a good chance to. Amanda

Oh my gosh, I am so sorry to hear that. Tell Angie we will be praying for her family. What a devastating loss! Amanda

No problem, Amanda. I'll look for them. I added them into the Covert Trail cam photo page 3: http://www.coueswhitetail.com/bookstore/covert_photos_3.htm Neat pics. I see you had it on the 3 shot burst mode and got the same timing as I get between the pics, 4 seconds btwn 1st and 2nd, 3 seconds between 2nd and 3rd. Amanda

WOW!! I haven't seen rock like that brain formation before! That's very cool. Great pics, glad you were able to go up and enjoy such a splendid place!! Obviously needs to be on my list of things to do..... Did you camp up there? How were the stars? Amanda

Awesome, looks like great fun!! So what is the eel-like thing on your line? Bait? or did you catch that? Amanda

Cool pics. Mind if I grab them and post them on the Covert Trail Cam Photo Gallery page? Amanda

Sounds like your house will be a good one for a CouesWhitetail.com get-together sometime!!! I would love to see all your mounts when they are done! Amanda

Very nice finds! Love all the pics and the bull before photo too! Amanda

Sounds like you are living it up while you are there!! Good luck with the leopard! Amanda

Awesome!! Great to see you and the family having so much fun hunting there! Looks like some great trophies! When do you guys think you will be back in AZ? Amanda

They look like fibrous tumors, which do not really cause a problem for the health the of the deer. They don't involve any internal organs, just the skin. And unless they are in locations that interfere with feeding or locomotion or vision, they don't tend to cause problems. I used to see these alot in Eastern deer. Don't see it so much out West.

Nice job improvising on the camera!! Those shots are pretty good considering! Amanda

I got unit 23 WT Nov. Amanda

To get signed up visit the az donor registry: http://www.azdonorregistry.org/ and more info on donating and volunteering: http://www.dnaz.org/Home.aspx Amanda

Yes, I am one. Good idea to bring it up so people can think about it. Amanda

That was an interesting mix of stories.... Not sure what to tell you on the fox. How about a baby gray fox? They do have red in them. I suggest searching for fox pics online and seeing if you can find one that looks like it. Amanda

There is another drug called Zubrin that my vet prescribed for our old dog. It's a daily pill that is supposed to help with inflammation and be a lot safer than Rimadyl. It seemed to work great for several months, but then didn't seem to help. The vet said sometimes the arthritis proceeds to get bad enough and the zubrin might not be strong enough to help. But you might try it for your dog if you just need some moderate help for arthritis. Amanda

Nice pics!!! Hey did you notice you have more pics of your CouesWhitetail.com sticker than you do of your wife Thanks, I will grab some of those for the sticker photogallery! And like Gamehauler said, you really should have tried harder to get that bear to wear a CWT shirt for the photo!! Amanda

Great video Scott, thanks for posting!! Amanda

I have not used the solar panels with this setup, but they have a plug-in for a panel to attach. Apparently it has to be a 6V version. I guess you would have to buy rechargeable AA's that would then charge off the solar panel? I would like to test this out sometime. Amanda

Hey All, I am excited to announce that DLC Covert has found ways to lower the cost of the cameras and I am now able to pass those savings on to you. The Covert 2 cams used to be $249 and now they are $219.99! Nice savings for a great product. The Covert 1's were $199 and now they are $189.99. So if you have been wanting to get one of these cams, then now just might be the time! Remember these are 5MP cams with infrared flash. They take excellent pics and video and have fast trigger speed and long battery life. No change in the quality of the cams, just new lower price. http://www.coueswhitetail.com/bookstore/trail_cameras.htm Amanda

I am just waiting for Clay to see the photos of him in this post. Hope he doesn't come over and let the air out the tires in my jeep for posting those!! I like your series TAM! Amanda

Hey All, Thought you might get a kick out of this story..... Last year while doing owl surveys on the San Carlos I lost a radio on a steep, thick slope. I searched for it for quite awhile, backtracking all over. Finally I gave up and returned to camp without the radio....none too happy. So, since I needed radios, I bought some upgraded Motorolas. But some of you might remember the awful performance of those radios on my deer hunt with Scott last year. Anyway, I took those radios back for a refund and ever since have been without radios (except for 1 from the original pair that I didn't lose). Well last week, my husband and I were hiking in the same steep area and he manages to find the radio that I lost a year before! He wasn't even with me when I lost it and so he didn't know where to look for it. And I wasn't with him when he found it since I was covering the other side of the canyon. So when we get home, I put in new batteries and the radio perks right up! Seems to work fine despite laying on the ground through all the monsoons and being buried in snow for months. It has several rodent chew marks but none are really bad and now I actually have a pair of working radios! I couldn't believe he actually found it!! What are the odds?? and how likely is it that it would not suffer some electrical problem after laying out in the weather for a year? Yippee!!! Nice to have my gear back! Thanks Husband!! Amanda

Hope you have a great day Jason!! For those that don't know Jason, he is the one who creates the bronzes we give away here in the Coues buck contests every year. AND he has graciously agreed to donate 5 bronzes to the ADA auction coming up in a couple weeks. One bronze is a mulie, one is a coues and another is going to be a custom bronze made to order by the winner of the item in the live auction. That means if you win it, you can have Jason create a bronze of your favorite trophy! I think it's a great item to win and I figure lots of guys have some great animals they would love to have in a bronze. He is also donating two bronze sheds to the silent auction, so if you would like one of those mini WT sheds that he made for me or a life-size WT shed, make sure you attend the AZ Deer Association banquet!! http://www.azdeer.org for ticket ordering Thanks Jason, your generosity is overwhelming!! Have a GREAT Birthday!! Amanda

Some more series: And here are some of Clay and his dad!!
