skyhawkbowhunter Report post Posted January 13, 2011 I had to miss opening day due to football, although i had just played an entire game going both ways and not getting to our hunting spot until 4:45 in the morning i was to excited to sleep. I was seeing deer almost immediately. This was my first coues hunt and even though i had the opportunity to shoot either a muley or coues i decided to try and get a coues since i already had taken two mule deer. i passed up some nice muleys which was extremely hard to do. When the first day was over i had seen about 20 muley does and 2 nice muley bucks as well as about 12-15 coues does. The next morning we were 100 yards out of camp when my buddy spotted a couple deer about 800 yards away, and the stalk began we stalked to 200 yards of where the deer were, we located them just as they we were going over the ridge so we hustled up the ridge and glassed them up 365 yards away and the rest was history. Although this is the smallest of all 5 animals i have taken this was definitely the animal i am most proud of. I am now addicted to these little deer!

My Rights As An American Report post Posted January 13, 2011 Congrats! Great deer, memories are what make the trophy, not the size of the deer or antlers in my mind! My first ever whitetail was my first ever deer and it was with a bow. It was a small forkie. That was almost 20 years ago, and I remember exactly how it went down. I could take you to the spot today! Great memories you will cherish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
