Yes Stan, that is exactly what happened, we migrated from the coues section of MonsterMuleys soon after Allen shared the site. We had an Az forum all to our own and in the beginning, it was a "who's who" of the Az hunting community. We've been fortunate to see several members move onto successful guiding ventures, others tagged record book game, it's been a ride. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daryl_s Report post Posted July 26, 2023 I just hit 18 years a little over a week ago! I have met a lot of great people on this site over that time. Others that I haven't met in person, I still feel like I know them pretty well. It is intersting to see how the forum and a lot of the posts have changed over the years. I think a lot of that is due to how social media has grown and evolved over that time. It used to be every different season you could read several different excellent write ups on people's hunts, along with multiple pictures. There used to be a lot more information on tactics posted. I miss those days. Ever since I first started hunting coues as a 12 year old in the early 90's I had an extreme passion for it. Looking back I really had no idea what I was doing, and if I ever got a buck it was pure dumb luck. I have learned so much from those early days and the help of many members on here. Even just a few years ago I was struggling with a tough hunt and reached out to a few members on here just asking for some tactical advice. After some advice and encouraging words I was able to take a really nice buck(in my avatar) on the last day. I owe a lot to this site and the great people involved in it. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
