AZ Coues Success

[gonhunting247]

I was able to make the long road trip(23 hrs.)from OR to AZ for my first ever Coues hunt. Until I reached my hunting unit I had never even seen a Coues deer. The fact that I had never set foot in the unit and this would be a solo hunt made for a little bit of nervousness. But still, I was like a kid at Christmas, as I headed for my new adventure. I was lucky enough to connect on a good buck that easily met the benchmark I had set for myself. These little guys are tiny; they are amazing little critters, perfectly suited for the tough environment they thrive in. I had a great trip, learned a ton and can't wait to go back. Next up is a Javelina tag that I drew for February. It is also the first time and in a unit I have never been to. I can't wait!

Congrats on getting it done, I hope that I am as successful.

I start my hunt on Monday for a coues. Like you it is my first time but I have seen them in a different area than the tag that I drew.

Thanks, and good luck on your Coues hunt! I can see why people get addicted to hunting these cool little deer. I'll be looking forward to your pics and story

East and a little north of the Tucson area. Actually some pretty rough country there!

No bucks, but I did see a few does in two different groups. Being from OR it was hard to wrap my head around the whitetail being high and the Muleys in the lower country

vary cool and congrats ill be heading down there in january for our annual archery javelina and deer hunt

Southern Arizona has plenty of rough country. Spent time there as a young man, and we have begun research for archery hunts in the years to come. That January one would fit our lives well.

Beautiful buck.

I agree, the country is rough and everything that lives there is tough. The January Javelina/Coues combo is really interesting, that's for sure. Good luck when you get down there, sounds like a blast.

Congratulations. This is a trip I was looking at this year but other things stopped that idea. Hoping to give it a try next year. Have enough points for rifle tag but wanted to bow hunt it first as a info trip. Nice buck.

A great way to end another incredible year! Congrats!!

Sweet buck, that hunt has always intrigued me but never quite enough to knock other options off the top of the list...yet!!!
