Firearrow Report post Posted July 23, 2009 I have been going to a spot out side of Globe AZ every other year for about eight years now, I live in Sacramento CA so it makes scouting trips kind of hard. The area I see the Coues are up high in the mountains, and usually in the drainages. I usually stumble upon them, and it makes it hard to put them to bed so that I can try to get an arrow in them. O ya by the way I still have not arrowed a Coues yet. So the question I have is one, is my method of trying to spot them up high and put them to bed a bad idea? Two, should I be looking for a better area than in drainages. Three is there a better area or ounit I should looking into, and no I am not trying to steal someones spot. Basically I am admitting I don't know a lot about Coues, and I am asking any and all Coues Masters for help. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coues 'n' Sheep Report post Posted July 23, 2009 It does not matter where you hunt, just so have a concentration of deer there... It is going to be hard to connect on a coues with your limited knowlege of the areas and your limited time frame.... however hard work, and a little luck will eventually get you a buck. Spot and stalk coues hunting is one of the toughest things you can do unless you really understand them and spend lots of time around them. Perfect timing on when to hunt will also help you to score a good buck. I personally would recomend that you spent a day or two looking for the right spot, throw down a ground blind and ambush one... you might have better success that way.... Good Luck.
