a couple lions
azcouesandelk replied to azhuntnut's topic in Photography of Coues Deer and Other Wildlife
Man that is the amount of lions I have seen in my lifetime in that picture. Actually no I have seen 3 lions but still I have never seen 2 or 3 at a time. Coosefan congrats on the successful lion hunts even though you were bear hunting. Better than nothing -

Another elk/deer slayer taken out
azcouesandelk replied to GRONG's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
Josh you da man. You are killing lions like I am shooting cans. -
Thats what I thought. I looked through the zeiss last year when I was looking for a scope for my .300 but saw the price tag. Now my .300 is retired due to bad barrel vibration. So I have a new gone on the way and my #1 choice for a scope was the 3.5-10x44 zeiss conquest. Just wanted to get some peoples opinion on these scopes.

Good to hear it helped I am looking forward to seeing some pics of this huge pig.

Yes it did and that is an awesome shot and some good footage for 480 yards I think.

Well let me just start off by saying ?ITS ABOUT TIME!!!? It only took me 8 years to harvest my first javelina but it was worth the wait. Since I had a baseball game Friday I was only able to go down for Saturday and Sunday morning. Well I woke up Saturday at 4 a.m. to take the 4 hour drive down to unit 31. Well after my scouting trip I was unable to locate a herd so we went to the only place that I had seen any big game at all which was 3 whitetails. My dad and I hiked up a ridge to get to a peak. He told me to hurry up and get up there and start glassing. So I picked up the pace and worked my way to the top. I get setup and just started to glass when my dad says ?This place doesn?t look to good?. Well I glassed another 30 seconds and found a pig. I called my dad on the radio and told him. He got up there and by that time I had a herd of 11 pigs on the hillside. The only thing is this hillside was also about 1 ? miles out. We make a plan and work our way down the mountain to the rolling hills and to the ridge before the hill they were on. I spot them down in the flat bedded next to a wash. I get to 190 yards and see a rock outcropping about 50 yards above the pigs. I work my down while my dad stays up high to watch. I get there and spot one of the larger pigs walking in front of a tree. I take aim and the pig drops. My dad comes down the hill and when he gets to where I was a pig came out of nowhere on the hill across from us. I range the pig at 150 yards my dad takes a shot and dumps the pig. Sadly I pulled my shot and hit the pig in the skull so I won?t be able to bleach it. My dads pig is an old sow that has hardly any teeth left just the tusk that are almost gone. Here I am with my pig Here I am with both pigs Here is my dad with the 2 pigs Here I am with mine again Here I am again with both pigs

WHAT AN AWESOME DAY!!!
azcouesandelk replied to azcouesandelk's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona
retlaw they are the 15x56 swaros and I would have never found the pigs if it werent for them. They are absolutely amazing and worth every penny. Ernesto I thought you knew what that was. It is the oldest camo known to man. They call it sky camo now since it blends in with the sky so well. Thanks for all the congratulations. -
