Awesome deer, nice job.

I am new to the forum today. I have used it a lot but never posted. Now I know why you all love Coues so much!! Here is why I do. I have lived in AZ most of my life. I did not hunt a lot when I was younger. I move to Iowa for school and chased big whitetails with my bow. I loved it. Then I came back here and really wanted to shoot a javelina ( I still cannot find one to save my life! ). I have seen more deer than javis here. So now I am concentrating more on coues. I am hooked!!! I glassed some up a couple weeks ago or so for the first time, that was awsome and got within 10 yards and only the doe was left. I was out on Jan 1 and spotted one, got within 51 yards, awesome. Then I shot! And missed! I thanked God for the opportunity to hunt his magnificent creature and got back to glassing. Did I mention that I am so hooked now!!!! I did not even shoot one and now all I can think about is going back out and trying it again. Andrew

Nice buck, GREAT shot!

I have hunted quail around Peralta Rd. My buddy got into some pigs one day when we were out there.

Sounds like you guys had a great time! Nice job.

I don't know how many of these tags my brother and I have eaten, but I think it is about 5 or 6. I cannot find these things. This year I had help. THANK YOU, CLAY PRICE. I met him here and told him of my frustrations and he offered to help me out. We were out in 24A on Friday with no luck. Saturday morning we got started again. We found one lone pig that crossed the colvert (sp) and went on the other side of the highway. We went after him and then decided to let him go. Later on we decided to do some hiking and after we walked this spot for an hour or so, Clay exclaimed, "PIGS". They were across the highway! We made our way over to find one pig feeding. Then we saw 2 more with them. My brother shot and connected. His pig dropped. I shot a bit low. I nocked another arrow and the pig took off slowly. Without getting graphic, I could see it was badly wounded. We followed it into a colvert where it was "woofing" at us. Clay assured me when you have a wounded javelina that is when all the fun starts. I did not believe him and really just wanted to put my hands on my pig. It turned out Clay was right. After a while of running from on side of the highway to the next checking the colvert, the pig ran out. At this point my heart sank because he was running FAST. He made his way into another colvert while we followed his blood train. 3 more shots finally did the job! I must say it was fun. Again, that you Clay for taking out a couple strangers for one of the funnest hunts we have ever been on! L to R Andrew (me), Clay and Matt

I think it may have been. But when it is all alone and you are not seeing any they look A LOT bigger!

For the record, I CAN gut my own game. But when you took it upon yourself to dig in, why would I stop you! I can't wait to do it again bud. Thank you!

I know he had fun. It was a great time!

very nice javelina

Great job! I hope to have a year like that once!

I have eaten one of those the last 3 years. I would rather be eatin venison though!

Nice pigs. I was out in 24A looking for pigs also. No luck yet. I have yet to find them in there but I hear there are quite a bit!

That is an awesome deer, nice job!
