I got me another buck, but not the bigun I've been scoutin all year...My brother and best friend and I got up in there Thursday a.m. just to find camps set up all over the place normally we dont see a single soul out there exept for 2 guys on mules, this year it was a flippin circus. Opening mornin my brother and I were glassin a buncha deer when all this suddin something spooked them, I soon realized it was another hunter that was sittin up on the hill glassing through his rifle scope So we moved onto plan B and just after we hiked our butts off to get up there I dropped my water jug and put a big hole in it So now Iam about 3 miles from camp with no water, but we see 3 bucks and shots were fired but we both missed. Out of water and hot we headed back to camp and drank a bunch of beer The next mornin we went up to the same spot were we seen the 3 bucks and about 5 minutes after I sat down I see a deer about 200 yards away with antlers and that is when my hunt ended, I got me a big forky and back to camp I went for more cold beer...Later that evening the guys on the mules stopped by and they also could'nt believe all the people out there this year. My brother has pic's and I will send them to Amanda just as soon as I can...Terry

I sure hope so, One of these years I'll get one that I can hang on the wall

Thanks for all the congrats guy's, Ernesto, let's just say the beers were flowin like a creek in the spring And as far as mules go....I want one Mules are the way to go up into this nasty country, and thin some...I have a buddy that packed mules for the forrest people up to Mannig Camp fer about 5 years. He has stories to tell untill the cows come home about some of the racks hangin up at the cabin Say's some of them are the size of mule deer

Lark is prolly gunna ask what kinda gun or bullet your buddy was a shootin cuz there is a big ol hole in the the that second deer :lol.....Soo what was he shootin?

That is a wall hanger fer sure Great buck Seth.

One thing we can all do as Americans, and that is to do what ever it takes to keep OUR COUNTRY SAFE...Help out the BP as much as posible by reporting such activity and not just sittin back watchin it happin...Just remember we are at WAR and not all of the illegal's are from Mexico There are alot more O.T.M's out there now that are from the middle east

Kid's making you nervous Let me be the first to tell you about kids making you nervous....I have two boys that are into everything...12 and 6 years old, my nerves are shot to heck everyday of my life,,,but I would'nt trade a single minute with them outdoors

One more thing....I'am glad the record is set stright

Agree completely on both counts. I say three-pointer and cooz, and I don 't give a twit what they do back east or if Dr. Elliot Coues pronounced his name like the bovines. When I first started hunting them in 1948 as a boy they were simply "whitetails" to most Arizona hunters. Those who had some experience outside the state called them "Arizona whitetails" (and so did the Boone & Crocket Club.) It was in the 1960s and early 1970s that we and everyone else started calling them "desert whitetails." We even had a club we called the "Record Desert Whitetail Club." The B&C minimum for desert whitetails was 100 points net and we had to shoot a record buck to join the club. We were automatically kicked out for shooting a whitetail buck smaller than 100 points or a mule deer of any size. I lasted just one season, and was drummed out because I shot a mule deer. About the same time B&C raised its minimum it changed its title of its listing to "Coues white-tailed deer," following the scientific name Odocoileus virginianus couesi. It sounds stupid to me everytime I hear someone say "cows' deer" but it does tell me that the person who said it has had very little to no experience with these wonderful little deer.
