My Late November Coues'

[desertdog]

First Coues was 115, your funny.

 

 

 

Great job on a deer of a lifetime.

[Chef]

That's a smoker!!

BTW, I told Phil to guess 115.

I don't think I have seen a coues that is an in line 6-pt like that buck is on his left side. What awesome character and what a tank! Congrats.

Holy Smokes! that is an outstanding buck! Great Job.

[Coues Sniper]

Wow, that is a STUD of a buck He looks bigger than 115 to me in those pics, but he's one of those shoot first ask questions later kind of deer. Congrats on a great buck!

[Huntaholic]

I was way off with my guess of 121. Good thing you didn't post that pic with him behind the rock the first time or I would have guessed 125. That pic makes him look huge! Awesome buck thanks for sharing!

I agree, I think you need to have him re-scored! I think he is over 120 for sure. And what I say is ALWAYS right

Awesome buck- I checked all sources and I found Notellum Canyon near Wereizit Creek - congrats on a great buck!

I made the trip to Albuquerque Saturday and had my buck officially scored. I did learn that with irregular points there are definite variables in scoring, but I am freakin' thrilled. He is being entered as a non-typical, grossing 113 7/8" with a net of 112". Now it's time to start looking for a perfect little basket rack.

Talk about calibrated eyeballs.... Tyson and Josh knew it all along.

 

 

on a side note, the Sitka Blacktail I took in '07 made B&C also.

Great buck , Bill!! A No Brainer.... regaurdless of score!!! Kinda currious, your post makes me wonder if they scored that split on the left off of the beam?? It appears to have a common base and would have to be scored off the beam if so..... just currious.

It was scored off the beam. My next quest is to find a decent cape, his might be too damaged.

Clay @ Mogollon Taxidermy just took the capes from us off our Jan. bucks.... Mine was a 101" buck with good bases and a really rusty forehead.... Bet you could buy that off of him or better yet you won't be soory if you have him mount that Bad Boy for you!

Thanks for the info on the cape, that is a good looking buck, I checked out your thread on the bowhunting link. I called Clay and left a message about getting a cape, I do my own taxi work.

 

Thanks,
