Darr's 2009 AZ Coues

Here are the photos from the AZ coues hunt this weekend in Southern Arizona.  Darr shot a nice 4x3 and Jimmy, my cousin, had a great time even though he didn't harvest a buck.    Darr's buck scores 101 inches and has a real nice frame.  He is 15 inches wide and has decent point length.  I was able to capture the hunt on video (coming soon).  Darr and I had watched this buck for several seasons and Darr decided to let the buck grow last year when he had a tag but as it turned out the buck actually did not grow at all and seemed to be a great buck to harvest.  He shot the deer using his .257 Weatherby Rifle with a Swarovski 4X16 TDS scope and a 115 grain ballistic tip bullet.  The gear used on this hunt was critical to our success.  I will specifically cover the gear in another post but some of the items we used on the hunt were Wilderness Athlete (energy gels, bars, focus and energy drink, hydrate and recover drink), Kowa 32X82 Binoculars, Outdoorsmans Pack System, Cabelas Hunt tech series shirts, Carhartt Double knee pants, Mont Bell Thermawrap jacket, Sitka gear vest, Swarovski Optics, and Havalon Piranta knives.

















Jim always has a smile on his face!
