We really went primitive on our recent Coues trip to Arizona 😂 If anyone needs an Airbnb recommendation for the Sonoita area, I'd be happy to share. Great host and reasonable price!- dcopas78

Question about Coues deer...UPDATE
Well we never did get another chance of getting dad a buck. Some of the forks and spikes that we passed on the first day would have looked pretty good on the last! We had a great time nonetheless. We left the hunting area a day early to go to the Grand Canyon and we were sure glad we did. No... -
Question about Coues deer...UPDATE
Still trying to get one for dad but I tagged out the 2nd morning on this buck at 275 yards. I wasn't picky for my first one, just wanted a legal buck. We decided to bring my son along for the trip. He's getting a different sort of education this week! We've been seeing a lot of deer with... -
My son's first buck and doe
Last weekend was Ohio's youth gun season and my son capitalized with his first doe and buck. He got the doe Saturday morning and the buck Saturday evening. It was a great day! He, my dad and I leave Wednesday for a rifle coues deer hunt in Arizona. -
Question about Coues deer...UPDATE
My dad and I drew our rifle tags for the December 1-10 hunt in a unit we hunted archery a few years ago. We saw lots of bucks with some rut activity while we were there. My question is; is it likely that the deer will still be in the general area? I know rut activity is unlikely but I am not... -
AZ Cards Getting Hit
Dad and I only put in for a early December rifle hunt in 35A. I split my points with him since he didn't have any so we only had an average of 2. He isn't getting any younger at 78. Granted he is a healthy and active 78 but I'd love to see him get a Coues deer My card got hit so looks like...- dcopas78

First bird for my son
My son got his first gobbler this past weekend during the Ohio youth season. 23 pounds, 10.5 beard, 1 1/8 spurs. It was a quick but certainly a exciting hunt and a memory neither of us will soon forget!- dcopas78

My nephew Ashton's buck...
Dad finished up his mount this weekend. He's one happy hunter! -
My nephew Ashton's buck...
In Ohio he can hunt under an apprentice license with my brothers (or licensed adult) supervision without taking the hunters ed course outright. I like that Ohio did this myself. It was meant to increase youth participation. So sorry for the loss of your son -

My nephew Ashton's buck...
Yeah dad will probably wait til after drying period for official score since the magazine will want that for their story. I'll be sure to follow up. Tim, my brother, has been contacted by so many groups wanting to talk to him and Ashie about the deer and the story leading up to it. It's... -
My nephew Ashton's buck...
Today has been crazy! My brother has been on the phone nearly all day with many different publications including North American Whitetail who want to do an article on Ashton and his buck and his passion for hunting. The Ohio DNR is going to do a story about the hunt, and there is a strong... -

What's the deal with Hatch chilis? Need a quick answer!
Hatch chilis are the bomb! My wife isn't a pepper fan at all, but you'll never catch her eating an omelette with hatch chili on it. There are several recipes I make that I use it in. Being from Ohio, I have to order from the source in batches. I don't trust the local specialty stores. Tried...- dcopas78

First hand Covid symptoms
My 40 year old, healthy cousin has been on a ventilator for over 4 weeks. He is sedated, and trached. He flatlined for 4 minutes on the 9th, the first time they tried to trach him. They finally got it done yesterday. Now there is concern that he may have brain damage because of the...- dcopas78

Another retirement question
I think one of the most important things is to he debt free when you retire. One of my friends and former workers retired at 30 years service (public employee) which would have been fine had he not decided to build a new house a few years prior to retire. Poor planning as he neglected to...- dcopas78

Anybody else feel like they just got kicked in the junk by a Wyoming pronghorn?
We didn't really expect to draw due to reduced tag numbers. It did take nearly 2 more points to draw the unit we put in for than what it did last year, but we figured as much. Just thought we might get luck in random. Looks like I'm going to Arizona again in January. I was actually kinda...- dcopas78
