MattMan Report post Posted September 15, 2015 I have killed on my own (5 bucks from 105-141)... After working hard my entire life I'm now in a position to buy the governors tags for the next 10 YEARS!... Thank you to my wife Jackie McDermott who bought me this tag... Thanks that is my 141" Mark Boulanger (Bo) helped me kill... ....Brandon McDermott First of all, congrats for being the guy lucky enough to pull the trigger on one heck of a huge Coues. It's truly a buck of several lifetimes. Now that that's out of the way, pardon me for being slightly confused. Maybe I'm just ignorant, but it's easy to misinterpret people, especially on the internet. Do you have enough to buy the auction tag for the next ten years, or does Jackie? And exactly which bucks did you kill on your own? Is this one of them? - http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/21912-115-muzzleloader-buck/ I've killed a couple bucks on my own, and know what goes into doing that. I want to make sure you get credit where credit is due, and that the haters shut up and move on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

buddydog Report post Posted September 15, 2015 Coues D, congratulations on such an amazing animal!! I've had the pleasure of hunting with a few guys form A3. You won't find a better group of guys who live for harvesting giant animals. LET THE HATERS HATE!!!!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yes I have plenty of resources to buy the tags for next 10 years I respect your accomplishments, and thanks for clarifying. Our definition of "on my own" differs, but I respect the accomplishment just the same. Like I said earlier, I've been lucky enough to kill some bucks on my own, which is what most I suppose call solo. Going into an area I've never been, figuring things out, and once in a while being successful. I've also been lucky enough to kill some bucks with friends or buddies along. I've killed some animals by pure luck... an archery muley in the last hour of the the last day of the year when I was really after a certain coues buck comes to mind. I've had some advice and help from others along the way. I've also helped some friends, relatives, my wife, and both of my kids fill quite a few tags... which of course no compensation other than the appreciation for the experience and company has ever changed hands. I've never been an outfitter or guide, but have been very close if not involved with some of those hunts. I can respect and appreciate all of the different experiences, though the solo hunts and those with me and just my wife and kids were the most special... and not necessarily the biggest. Some didn't even involve antlers. If you can truly get the tag from here on out, I'd encourage you to do it alone just once. Good hunting, good health, and good luck. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHT_MTNMAN Report post Posted September 16, 2015 It's kinda of funny, well no it isn't. A few select disagree with someone's choices of how to hunt and we run a Coues deer hunter ( BTW a hunter who has killed some good bucks) off of a Coues deer website.. Nicely done,I wonder how many Coues bucks have been killed by those running at the mouth. Probably not many.... 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
