Coues 'n' Sheep

Nice!! Not sure I agree with the 360-370 score.... I tink he better den dat! .... Hard to tell from pics though... A shooter for sure!! Thanks for sharing.... that got me all worked up!!! I love trash bulls!

That's not something you do everyday! My advice is.... Have a great hunt and just play smart while your down there. Better to be safe than sorry. Good Luck! CnS

Being that it is a depredation hunt, I would assume that they are wanting to harvest elk that are either damaging crops or causing problems somewhere. I know someone you can call to ask about that. Also, I will be in that unit next week and if I get the chance I'll do some checking.

What happened.... everyone's pockets go dry?????

The wife and I both got our deer tags in da mail, too!!!!

Sweet!!!

I am quite sure the AZGF would love that info as well.... being that they want to put a stop to that sort of thing. Good game trails and hidden springs or water holes are my favorite spots.

Thanks Casey Can you tell I am not a reloader Good thing I look after you! Serously tough, if you want you can use my 270 or my 30-06 Thanks again Casey but I do not like to borrow things Mike Except from Gino That is cuz I have all the best toys!!!

This lil' buggar Jacked with my trail cam about 5 or 6 times in two weeks! The good news is that he left my cam pointed int a different dirction each time allowing me to see the surrounding brush from different angles.... I am going to build a "Bear Proof" cage for my cam now..... I hope that his timing is so predictable in a couple of years (when he's bigger), so that I can slip an arrow into his ribs!!

I don't think the the 3-4 inchers with good bases are gunna get over that mysical 80" mark, Casey... Nice pics.... like the one of the bedded buck and the feeding one.

I am pretty sure that this is the same buck in both pics... almost a month apart. He has done a bit of growing. I think this buck a young buck.... I mean on his way up, not down....

Awwww man..... ... He is gunna be so bummed, when I tell him that he is not love as much as he thinks he is.... I'd try to get him to donate, too, but he is a cheep SOB to boot!!

My feelings EXACTLY. Well Said!!! Back to the thread...... Elkman...... Awesome bear, man!!! Congrats!!!! That is a TOAD!!!!!!!

That buck really looks like he has one horn....now.... How much are the beer glasses?? I think GH might want to treat us to beer out of CW.com glasses on his daughter's elk hunt....

Not on Fain Ranch it won't... ... Those are the most educated goats around. We have had good success spot & stalk and good success in blinds over there. We always hunt the "condos".... my huntin' buddy works the ranch so we usually have our pick.... The last hunt I was on over there, my boy had the tag and had hunted for about 5-7 days spot & stalk without scoring.... he came home all bumbed and hit me up to go back with him.... I had to think about it for oh... about.... 1/2 a second! heck Yeah!! We had to leave late that morning, cuz I had a meeting... got there about noon... had a buck on the ground before 3 pm.... It was a Frickin' hoot! That was my boy's second 19A buck. Too bad the Good 'Ol Days are gone.... It sure was the greatest place to hunt at one time! I have hunted that country a bunch..... and Matthewp45.... I can only give you one piece of advice about archery goat hunting.... there is nothing wrong with completely missing..... it is when you barely miss your mark and have to chase a wounded goat that you reallize how important the phrase Aim Small, Miss Small is.... I've watched it happen many times over there, and was fortunate that it never happened to me..... I hope that you can have the same good fortune. Good Luck. CnS

I just built this for our Wildview cams.... The one that I built for the Moultrie cams works Great! I have them set up to run 2 lags into the tree.

Holly main frame, Batman!!! That is a dandy!! Were you glassing for bears when you found him?

Well put, Manny. That is good advice. Manny's wife is one of the toughest and best bowhunting wives I have ever met! She has enough experience to make up her own mind about here equipment. Oh, and did I mention that she just had their second child last week??? A baby GIRL!!!! Congrats, Manny and Tiana!!!!

Last I heard there are still issues there, but also at the Dekker place (in Deer Cr.), and also someone said that the road up Turkey creek was closed too?? I heard that you can't drive passed the mouth of Bear Canyon? What a mess. They will have to do 5 years of impact studies to cut roads in around these trouble makers.... or better yet why not just declair the roads eminent domain and cut the locks! I mean they do it in Pheonix if they want to build a freeway.... they basically throw people out... ... in this case it would be public service as well. I just think that it should be illegal stop access to public lands of this size. Just my $.02!

FYI.... NAP Spitfires make the same 1 1/2" hole going in as it does going out. These expandable heads that don't open on impact are a waste...IMO. With a broadhead, it should be all about the size of the "drain holes"! I want 2 big holes so I have a large and hopefully short bloodtrail. Also, back to the original question on this Thread...... If your wife shoots a deer with an expandable out of a low poundage bow, and it does not pass through, it will not continue to cut like a fixed blade does. So, if the expandable does not open as it enters the hide.... and it does not pass through.... you might as well have shot it with a field point. At 40 yds and in most fixed blade heads are just as accurate as an expandable if properly tuned..... I use my Spitfire 100's most of the time with the thought that if I need to take a shot at beyond 50 yds.... I have the most accurate heads to do that with. My son still shoots the Razorbacks even though he shoots the same poundage I do now... and that is the head that I will put on my wife's bow this year, as well. You can shoot a field tip at a deer and kill it (if that were legal)... but why not try stacking the odds a bit and use the Best head for the situation at hand. Shop around... Muzzy 3-blades are great, Thunderheads are also great, and there are several brands that offer really good chisle point and cut-on-impact fixed blade heads. Again.... just my $.02 ......

Bump..... any reasonable offers???

Give me directions on how to do that online and I would like to do the same.... Amanda, Can you create a way for people to donate to the cause as easilly as buying something from your online store?? CnS

Congrats on the Bear! Can't wait to see the pics!

Because we can't post pics at the moment.... I am reposting here. The 5th pic I posted in this thread is the buck that my buddy Jason harvested during our Jan. '07 hunt...(in the pic L to R, Jason, Me, & Colton) I posted his hunt story on the forum last spring. We finally got the P&Y score..... 110 1/8 Gross and 106 6/8 Net!!! Ummm, I think that makes the book.... I am real proud of my buddy.... but he kind raised the bar a bit... ... he beat my best archery buck by 1 2/8!!! Oh... this is gunna get tough and ugly... I can tell!
