Real nice buck- I was waiting for the ladies to get involved like they did last year! Congrats! AzP&Y

Awesome - heart pounding story!- 36b produces again! Nice PICS! Congrats! Back to back years! Azp&y

I say skip the October and November circus and put in for December hunts. (or next best option- hunt during the week)... QUALITY VS QUANTITY AzP&Y

Awesome way to put it all together and one shot! It's great to see the bucks being taken that were followed with trail cams and executing the shot on the hunt! Congrats! Nice spread on that coues! AzP&Y Doug

Very Nice Coues and enjoyed reading the story- Great pics! Smilin' all the way! Did you see any cats on your hunt? AzP&Y Doug

Great video, ok honestly I've watched it 4 times , just seems to be the fix for not drawing a dec tag! Nice job- looks like the .270 was dialed in for sure! AzP&Y

Hey Mike- THAT is the Truth- - But how about that feedback rating? That's the tough part keeping everyone happy - 100 % after 6 years. Ebay is a great way to 'recycle' gear after I've tested it and want to sell it and be able to buy or sell something else... Good luck - It's a great copy! Doug- azp&Y

Hi Guys, I actually have 2 copies of the book- (one on ebay) and another copy that I would be willing to sell. If you are interested without going through ebay (bidding process) ... Please email me (PM) your offer and I'll see what happens. I'll wait to see through this Sunday... and respond. I know Bill 27 years has gone by since the first copy .... AzP&Y

33 & 37b archery pig... No turkey (goulds HA HA) - Negative on the bear... Good times ahead chasin' pigs and coues in January! AzP&Y

Scout'm To make matters worse , someone is blazin away on water tanks in 32. Senseless outdoor vandalism... http://www.azgfd.gov/artman/publish/article_639.shtml Your point is well taken, landowners will only clamp down MORE on access if this behavior continues... AzP&Y

Ultralight or Bust – 10 step process for getting your base packweight under 15lbs. Going light is a bit like marriage: It’s a multifaceted contract that requires your constant Commitment. Cheat just a little bit, and your hike (hunt)- and especially your shoulders will suffer. But stick to these rules, and you’ll quickly find a new comfort level with 15 mile days. Step 1- Question everything – The ONLY way to make ultralight work is to ditch your standard gear list and your gotta-have coffee press attitude. A checklist tricks you into bringing things you don’t need. Like a massive shelter in the Arizona backcountry. For your next trip, start from scratch and chose only gear that’s absolutely critical for the conditions you’ll face. If in doubt leave it out. Step 2- Weigh it all. So many heavy items don’t need to be in the pack. Allow yourself a luxury item (comfortable sleeping pad). Step 3-Re think shelter- This is the place to make a major dent- Most Ultralighters use tarps. I’ve chosen the 2.2lb MSR trekker tarp, that uses trekking poles, and can be tied off to any tree and guy’d off using rocks, branches, logs. If the bugs are thick we bring the Mesh insert. We each carry 1 piece of the tent. MSR makes ultralight needle stakes that penetrate even the most rocky desert terrain. Step 4: Change your bedding - Old thinking – Choose a sleeping bag for the lowest temps you might encounter. NEW THINKING: Aim for the middle, and wear more clothes if a cold snap hits. If you are hunting hard, you’ll be up early glassing. If you want to reduce more weight , buy a short model pad and use your pack to place under your feet for insulation. I use the Thermarest pro-lite 3. It weighs 20oz. My golite featherbag weighs in at 1lb 10oz – Good down to 40 degrees. CMC & Out2hunt – I’ll PM you Steps 5-10 and a great base gear list that will guarantee more time hunting and less time setting up and back and forth to glassing spots. In the end you won’t have to worry about all of the other ARMY camps and you’ll have the spot to your self. It may sound like Discovery channel’s survivorman- but it’s not. Good luck on you hunts!

Usery has everything you need out to 300 yards (metal plate) 5.00 bucks entry fee and cheap targets. Go during the week and you'll enjoy it a bit more... Ellsworth north of McKellips. Good Luck! AzP&Y

That's what I'm talking about- 2 trekking poles and bivy. Forget this major production of a "camp" that plagues the arizona hunter. Ultralight- don't knock it , till you've tried it. AzP&Y

Looks like you've got the Rfactor spot. Nice trail cam pics and that coues buck is a BRUISER! Nice cat and bruin also! AzP&Y

Very NICE solid Coues buck!- Great story- way to go after it on the last day... AzP&Y

HA HA ! - Good ONE! So I went quality over quantity, looks like a got a bonus point instead! Great Coues buck for sure! Thanks for text message from the DMZ, I was all pumped up for you, after last year we worked hard during the Dec hunt only to come up empty handed but with another great year of hunt stories and a chance to become better coues hunters! GREAT JOB - MR> TYPICAL ! I was busy chasing these guys on Friday morning- would have loved to been on the radio and heard the shots ring out followed by "nice buck down" - There's always Jan 08! I say mine scored at least mid 90's? AzP&Y Doug
