Awesome video...thanks for sharing. Nice buck too!

I'm not killing large bucks or small bucks, but not because I'm passing on them! Just haven't been able to get it done...

Awesome...starting that baby off right! Congrats!

I think this is sort of like the presidential debates on TV...we can discuss differing viewpoints all we want and I doubt anyone's opinion will be changed. And that's what I've really enjoyed about this site...all the differing viewpoints and approaches to hunting. For anyone who has taken the AZGFD hunter ed program, this relates to the 5 stages of a hunter. Even though it seems pretty hokey during the training. We're all at different stages in our hunting life and our goals are different. I often feel like a combination of a couple of stages that aren't even next to each other. I've killed my share of deer in other states, but as far as AZ hunting and especially coues I've struck out for a few years. I'm at the point now of wanting to put any legal meat in the freezer. I sure this may change over time and with more success...or maybe I've gone straight to the last stage since I enjoy the hunting experience more than anything now. (Geez I hope I'm not getting that old already ) As others have pointed out the results of various management approaches have been well documented in other states and areas. If the law changes then I'll most certainly be the first to comply with whatever regulations are put into place. Bottom line...to each his own and makes for good discussion but not worth arguing or getting aggressive or defensive about it. Certainly not name-calling even though I still think trolls have pretty cool hair.

Trolls have pretty cool hair too...

Wow...that's one heck of a first coues! CONGRATS!

Wow...nice buck! Congrats!

Again...WOW just wow! Congrats to you and the hunter...

Nice plan B...awesome bucks. Congrats!

Nice buck...I'm 38 and looking for my first coues after 3 years of hunting AZ deer. Hopefully it's my year too! Congrats! Now you need to work on that level of addiction...

WOW! Awesome buck...congrats. Hope you know a good taxidermist!

Awesome shot...don't hear about shots that long with 30.06 very often! Congrats!

Very nice...same buck Amanda put on Facebook? Awesome...congrats!

Awesome. Great story and still holds true that any coues buck is a trophy. Congrats!

Nice buck! Congrats!

Well said Coach. +1

Is it just me or does that picture look photo shopped? That Jag looks fat, like one you'd see in the zoo, and his feet don't seem to be touching the trail. Yeah I think something doesn't look quite right about the photo too...

Awesome...congrats!

That's the kind of photo we were hoping for on your other thread! Nice buck...congrats! How about a story to go with the photo?

Very nice couple of bucks...agree great mass on your brother's buck. Congrats!

Awesome...great story and 3 very nice bucks. CONGRATS!

Smaller one of these on the porch last night...they're still out and active!

Awesome...CONGRATS! Can't wait for these opportunities with my kids!

Man that sucks! Especially right before your hunt...hope you get it back!

Mailed out by 11/30 according to the regs and First Come apps accepted starting 11/26. I'm betting on 11/16 to beat Thanksgiving week...
