COOSEFAN Report post Posted March 6, 2007 I was sittin' here thinking back 1 1/2 years ago. I had just got my first computer and had just put a Nov. 36B WT tag in my wallet! The first thing I did was search for "Coues" related things and found this site. I recognized some names on here and some photos and immediately became addicted! This was awesome, all the info, all the pic's and stories and being able to chat with folks who shared the same ambitions and desires as myself....there was no turning back! I have hunted all my life, never for any one animal more than the other.....well, I take that back, Elk hunting is in my blood....but regardless, I loved to hunt no matter what it was. I have had alot of Coues tags prior to '05 but had never gotten real serious about it before and a small two point was my only trophy to show for it...but I was proud of it nevertheless! The challenges I had faced on all my prior hunts did nothing but fuel my desire to conquer this little deer and devote more of my time to hunting them! That was when I drew that tag in '05 and jumped into the CWT.com family! In that last year and a half I've applied for the easiest tags to draw, bought tags I couldn't afford and I even traded a new pair of 15X56 Swaro's and an Outdoorsman's tripod for a tag.....all to appease this desire I have for hunting these amazing critters! I've taken 5 bucks in the last year and a half since this new found passion consumed me, and I can't wait to hunt for #6.......I think that means I'm obsessed? Thanks to you guys and gals here at CWT.com, I always love hearing about your hunts and seeing your pic's, and thanks for allowing me to share with you each of mine! This is a great site with great people....I'm glad to be a part of it! To document how my obsession has evolved...here are my bucks since I joined the ranks of all the other "Coues obsessed" individuals out there! Thanks JIM> Nov. '05 Jan. '06 Jan. '06 Oct. '06 Jan.
