KGAINES Report post Posted October 25, 2005 My dad always told me they were coues pronounced cows, but everybody I talked to said yea I know but I call them cooze, so I did too, I could care less, but cooze does seem to sound better. This year I am hunting mule deer, and I think I got that pronunciation down, I hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rembrant Report post Posted October 26, 2005 Coues deer Pronounciation: "Coos" if you are talkin to a fellow Az hunter. "Cows" if you are talking to an educated biologist like Amanda. (This really impresses her.) I like what an old Alaskan said when I spoke to him in Unit 32 once: He said he really liked hunting the "little cutes deer". Mule deer pronunciation: "Carp" (because they are bottom feeders). Big Horn Sheep: "Cliff Carp" (because they can suck a living off of a rock). Cattle: "Range Maggotts" (for reasons obvious). Proghorn Antelope: "Anti-Lopers" (because they prefer to run). Javalina: "Have-a-Lina" (what the heck is a Lina?) Note: Be careful using the "Cliff Carp" term around the elite, well to do, Sheep Society folks. They get really offended if they think you are diss'ing the object of their worship.
