Looking for a mature coues cape.
CatfishKev replied to Beaton's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
Nice buck! -
Your wife is a badass! Congrats on the 100 club
-
Not me, never been there. But I read there are feral hogs out there too.
-
A mile and a half with a deer on his shoulders. Sounds like the boy has grit. Congrats to you both and that's a fine buck.
-
Zacks gonna measure. High 80s for sure might go a little over 90. I think I need to work on field judging behind the glass.

You should come down for archery in January with newlyminted. He'll have a deer and pig tag.

I got the mystery ranch backpacking version of the pintler. It's enough for what I do and less expensive then the "hunting" version. Big selling point is the meat shelf for long hauls. But I still always try to drop an elk near a road if possible.

Way to go man. I can't imagine not seeing deer at all until the last day. That has to be really discouraging. Looks like your perseverance paid off though. Congrats on one heck of a stud buck!
-
That was a freaking blast man. I thought he was mid to high 70s from the truck. Always cool when they get bigger on the ground. Congrats again to her, she's a trooper!
-
Awesome buck man!
-
That's awesome! Hopefully there will be a lot more deer in your spot next couple years now.

Newly Approved Hunter Ethics Course for the Bonus Point
CatfishKev replied to rossislider's topic in The Campfire
Yes, yes indeed -
Assisted a new hunter a couple days. Grass was chest high at some of my favorite spots. A lot of wind and weather down here as well. He did get a shot and missed but it was a tough shot. Didn't here too many rifles go off and didn't see as many people as I expected.
-
Agreed. Good dude!
-
Awesome buck. 110
-
Looks like AM hunts from here on out.

Like said above. Sight in with something where you can push down on the stock with a good cheek weld. Sight in is most important. In the field I like a triclawps for the front end and a primos trigger stick on the butt stock. I take a beanie or what's available and put it in the cradle of the trigger stick so I can push down on it with my cheek. You can never count on a prone shot in the field with tall grass. This method is the best I've found. If someone has a better idea I'm all ears.

Congrats man!
-
Awesome. I love seeing wives and daughters out there getting it done! Congrats to momma!
-
Great job!

AZ Strip trail cam ban impact..?. and other thoughts?
CatfishKev replied to bigbuckclub's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
I have heard stories of people believing that their flats were not just flats on the kaibab and strip. Maybe they are just stories but when I finally draw my archery tag up there I will have cams near my truck. Also heard of antis leaving nails on roads. -
AZ Strip trail cam ban impact..?. and other thoughts?
CatfishKev replied to bigbuckclub's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
I wouldn't worry about camp as much but I'd have cams nearby watching traffic near your truck. Especially if you find a big one. I would just be overly cautious. Not trying crap in your Cheerios but if you find a real big buck you never know what someone might do to impede your success. -
AZ Strip trail cam ban impact..?. and other thoughts?
CatfishKev replied to bigbuckclub's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
Bring spare tires and a couple cams to set on your camp and truck. This year will be interesting to see how things play out with the cam ban. Hopefully there won't be 20 guys glassing per hunter.
