This has been something I've wanted to do for a little while now. Growing up I always was hunting with my Grandpa. He was really the one that got me into hunting in the first place, taking me every year for squirrels with the rimfire. I always saw all his mounts in his garage and didn't really think anything of this buck. I didn't even really know what a coues was. I thought a deer was a deer. 5 years ago when he died we put all his old mounts in storage. 2 years ago I went and pulled them all out and put the good looking ones on my wall. One day a buddy came over and said "Hey, that's a pretty decent coues." Ever since that day my interest has been progressing. I took the buck to a taxidermist buddy and he scored it at 90 5/8. Not too bad I suppose. Grandpa also did all his own taxidermy work. Still holding up after 34 years! He learned from a guy in Phoenix named Jeff Seevers. I completely attribute my new found interest in the grey ghost to my grandpa's 1975 coues buck. Miss the old guy. Here's his tag that's taped to the back of the mount. The Score Sheet from the taxidermist

Just wondering the legality of improving water sites by digging out catchments and creating more reliable water. Most of the places I'm thinking about are on public land.

WOW! Nice find! Do you know if anyone ever shot this bull? Can someone explain to me how you get the width measurement on sheds? Just curious.
-
Just letting everyone know that the issue is resolved. I super glued the plastic pieces back in and the cam is good to go! Love the cams!
-
I just went out and checked my cams. When I opened my Covert II a small rectangular piece of plastic fell out. I realized that there are two of these pieces that act as hole covers on the inside of the back of the case. Only one popped out but it could be an issue come monsoon season. Next time I go up I'm gonna bring some super glue and some silicone sealant as a preventative measure.

Got some load data from a buddy and is follows: H4831SC Powder at 59 grains Nosler 130 gr accubond Desired speed is around 3050 FPS When I went out today I had 3 loaded with 59 grains, 3 with 58.5 grains and 3 with 58 grains. I started with the lowest charge and got 3174 FPS. It seemed way to fast for that gun (Remmington 700) and I've got to crank it down some. Only problem is nosler doesn't have data on their website for the H4831sc powder. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also if anyone has a COL for the 130gr accubonds that would help some too. Right now the best I've found is 3.340

Does Scent Killer expire??
king4wd replied to huntswnm's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
I used it last year on my pop's elk hunt and had 4 yotes come into our tank with the wind blowin' straight toward them. Don't know if it was the scent killer but it seemed like pretty dumb luck to fool 4 finely tuned coyote sniffers. -
Amen Gino! Enough already. Put it to bed.

Are the Southern Units Really That Dangerous?
king4wd replied to AZMThunter's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona
They won't fight fire as agressively down there like they used to. All because of the illegal activity. SOUTHWEST GEOGRAPHIC AREA Safety Alert 4/10/2009 Subject: US- Mexico Border Fire Operations Safety Area of Concern: Firefighter and Public Safety Distribution: SW Geographic Area The US-Mexico Border has become increasingly dangerous: Health and safety concerns of employees and the public in areas adjacent to the US- Mexico border stem from two types of illegal activities on or near the border between Brownsville, TX, and San Diego, CA: drug smuggling and illegal immigration. Each of these illegal activities poses specific safety and health threat to personnel working on or near the border. The border violence has escalated to the highest levels over the last year. Drug Smuggling: Drug smuggling includes a variety of activities related to the transport and distribution of drugs, across the Mexican border into the United States. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency has deemed this area a high-intensity drug trafficking area (HIDTA). Drug smugglers are moving large quantities of drugs across Federal lands and they also are using recreation sites to stage the distribution of drugs to other parts of the United States. Drug smugglers are always considered potentially violent because they don’t want to be caught or lose their load of drugs. Illegal Immigration: Activities associated with illegal immigration fall into two categories: the operations of those trafficking in illegal immigrants, or “coyotes,” and the activities of the illegal immigrants themselves as they are being transported, or are transporting themselves, across the Mexican border into the United States. Most illegal immigrants simply want to be left alone in their quest to come to the United States, the coyotes who assist in the trafficking of illegal immigrants are a different story. Coyotes tend to blend into the group of illegal immigrants to avoid detection. These coyotes are engaged in illegal activities, could be armed, and don’t want to be caught. An encounter with these individuals poses a threat to personal safety. Even though there have been no reported cases of physical harm to a field employees, there have been cases of serious injury to law enforcement officers. Problems Fighting Wildland Fires All personnel responding to fires along the US- Mexico border need to be aware of issues related to illegal activities on or near the border and have a understanding of the unique problems they will face while fighting fire near the border. It is imperative that agency offices along the border provide IMT’s and incoming resources a very through briefing on the unique border safety issues. There is a real possibility firefighters will encounter illegal immigrants or drug smugglers. When firefighters encounter immigrants or smugglers, the firefighters may be distracted, losing the situational awareness they need to keep themselves and their crews safe. It is important that IMT’s responding to the border region set up coordinated efforts with local law enforcement (e.g., Border Patrol) in anticipation of illegal activities. These are potential situations firefighters could encounter: 1. Illegal immigrant and smugglers warming fires have started wildland fires. 2. Illegal activity along the border has involved “copy cat vehicles” painted to look like agency vehicles. 3. Radios and phones don’t work in many locations on the border. 4. When cell phones do work, a call placed to law enforcement might connect to an operator in Mexico. 5. Conflicts in air space with helicopters assigned to the fire and helicopters used for law enforcement. 6. Undocumented aliens are hiding or camping within or adjacent to the incident operations. 6. Potential health risks associated with large amounts of trash or caches of drugs burning. 7. Arson fires being started to divert attention from illegal activities happening nearby. 8. Clusters of illegal immigrant vehicles. 9. Packs and equipment being stolen. Border Safety Information: The US Forest Service and other agencies have developed protocols and training materials to help increase the safety awareness for firefighters working along the border.

AZWhitebear, I'm kinda in the same boat as you. First year trying to find sheds. I've looked many places in 10, 7w, 17a, 17b, and 20a. I found 8 sheds (1 3 point and 7 forkies) within 1 square mile in 20a and that's it. I just happen to work in the area and know that the mulie bucks summer in this one basin. I'd like some pointers too if anyone is willing to give up their secrets!

Pretty sure. He had gone up there the september before the rut hunt and got into a whole mess of 'em. Since he found them he made it a personal mission to kill one of the bucks up there.
