standman Report post Posted December 22, 2003 I thought that everyone might be interested seeing this picture. It is a picture of a coues deer that my dad killed in September 1968. The deer was taken in unit 27 near Hannigan Meadows. The buck has five scoreable points on each side and grosses 114 2/8 and nets 106 4/8. It would have been considered the world record at that time if my dad would have stripped the velvet off, which he would not do. Here is a picture of him now on the wall along with some others taken be me. Thanks, Brian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

standman Report post Posted December 22, 2003 Ernesto, the knife is a handmade collectors item made by LOF. My dad won it for White Mountain Bowhunter of the Year in 1973. My dad just turned 65 this December, and this past August he took his 63rd deer with a bow. For many years he hunted 4 states a year so they are not all from Arizona. As for the other 2 deer the smallest one was my first with a rifle, the other one was an archery deer from this past January. These two deer are not from 27. They are from a unit south of there.
