Thank you Mike!!! You are correct this has been a very popular contest. Even more so than our usuall "guess the score" contests. I suppose some people don't feel comfortable judging coues scores, but they are more relaxed about judging the number of beans in a jar? Or maybe it's just because of the prize? The Oct guess the score contest had 148 entrants. This one already has 219 guesses. Amanda

Awesome! Thanks for the writeup and pics. I saw a big two point like that years ago in the Galiuros and it took my breath away and made me hike up into some nasty stuff to go find him. Never got him, but man just the glimpse I had was impressive. Great buck Suzy!! Amanda

WoW!!! spectacular buck! Neat non-typical points on him. What a thrill that must have been to watch that stalk! Amanda

Wow!! Great looking buck Eric!! Congratulations! let's here some details! Amanda

From AGFD Wildlife News Dec 18: Michigan man assessed $14,995 for killing trophy elk near homes Michael J. Malik, a Michigan resident, appeared before the Arizona Game and Fish Commission at its December meeting in Casa Grande for shooting a trophy-quality, 7x7 bull elk too close to residential property without landowner permission. After hearing his statement, the commission voted to civilly assess Malik $14,995 for the state’s loss of the 408-point, velvet-antlered elk. The commission also revoked his hunting, fishing and trapping privileges in Arizona for five years, and he must successfully complete a hunter education course prior to having his license privileges restored. The commission’s action to revoke Malik’s license for five years has far-reaching implications. Arizona is a member of the Interstate Wildlife Violator Compact with 32 other states, including all western states and Malik’s home state of Michigan. Until his license privileges are restored in Arizona, he will not be able to legally hunt in any of those 32 states. Malik paid $135,000 at an auction for Arizona’s 2006-07 “special” elk tag at a Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation annual convention. Special tag holders have the added privilege of pursuing their designated big game for one full year. In the early hours of July 26, 2007, Malik, assisted by four companions, including Arizona elk guide John McClendon, shot, wounded and eventually killed the bull in a privately owned meadow in the Morgan Flat area east of Pinetop. While on patrol, the Arizona Game and Fish Department’s wildlife manager in Unit 3B, Shawn Wagner, heard the initial shot and responded to investigate. He found the Malik hunting party and wounded bull in close proximity to several occupied houses where the property owners were upset with Malik hunting and shooting near their homes. Wagner determined the homeowners had not been approached nor had they granted permission for Malik to hunt on their property. Wagner seized the bull and cited Malik for shooting violations. Shooting a firearm within a quarter-mile of an occupied building while taking wildlife without permission from the owner is a Class 2 Misdemeanor. After several pre-trial conferences and continuances, Malik was found guilty in the Pinetop Justice Court on Aug. 29, 2008, of discharging a firearm within the quarter-mile limit of occupied residences while taking elk. The criminal conviction authorized the commission to take civil action against Malik. “This incident is more a private property and public safety violation than it is a wildlife crime. The court and commission decisions are a strong reminder to all hunters about the importance of hunter awareness and safety and respecting the rights of private property owners and rural residents,” says Jim Hinkle, law enforcement program manager at the department’s Pinetop office. The department donated the edible portions of the elk carcass to Shepherd’s Kitchen, a charitable organization in Snowflake. The antlers and cape remain in custody of the department pending the outcome of an appeal to the Pinetop Justice Court decision by Malik.

How's this for ironic....I actually asked my husband to get me a vacuum cleaner for Christmas!! Have you guys paid attention to the background mantras being played in that film? They are great! hehehe Amanda

Definitely a nice find!! Congratulations! Amanda

Thanks for all the great pics (deer and coues country!)! Congratulations on all the bucks! And I am with you on enjoying watching the deer interact down there. The buck to doe ratios are so much higher that you get to see more interactions than you generally get to see on state land hunts. Nice shirt pics josh!! Amanda

Larry Craig sent this to me back in Oct and I didn't get it up until now. I don't know if someone else already posted it, but here it is anyway. http://www.coueswhitetail.com/video_clips/...raig_clip_1.WMV Sorry for the delay Larry and Kurt!! Amanda

Fun pic!! Amanda
