Thank you to the two fellows that PM'd me. Very helpful info.

Well, did you have any luck? My son and I have the late Jan 2022 hunt coming up in unit 24. We're hoping to catch them in the rut.

Ooook,..... so how about anyone seeing any rutting activity on coues in that southwest portion of the state. Our hunt is Jan 16-30. Feel free to PM me if you dont want to post here.

Anyone living in the Silver City area or anywhere else have any good info on coues in the area. We hunted there a few years back and know of a few places to hunt them but looking for some help for our late January hunt. Thanks

They batted a thousand. Good job coaching them Dad, and congrats to all of them

Ya I pretty much agree with Matt on this. If you wanna post pics, post them on this kind of forum

Wow Congratulations on that monster. That part of the state grows some big ones. Those sword (4th) points are just awesome. 2019 has started off with some truly impressive trophies. Again tell her congrats.

I think your list looks pretty reasonable. The only one I might question is Mora county. Mora county is surrounded by other counties that DO produce large bucks, and I have seen many large bucks in that county. Other than that the rest of your list looks about right One thing to keep in mind...

I lived in AZ during the 90's and found several places I'd like to hunt for Coues over there. Your son tagged a very respectable specimen....Congrats to the both of you. I'm currently scouting for them here in NM. Wish me luck.....LOL

Thanks for the reply via PM 82ndreddevil. Anyone else familiar with unit 24 Coues? Thanks.

Thanks for posting your story, and congrats on an awesome trophy. Sorry to hear about your friends injuries. Prayers for his speedy recovery.

Just looking for any info anyone can throw out there on this unit. I bought a couple of left over tags for myself and my son and plan to hunt that unit Jan 1-9. Anyone familiar with this unit and its coues deer?

Bump

Just looking for some general help with where to start looking for Coues whitetails in unit 24. I've never hunted this unit but got a couple of leftovers so my son and I can spend some quality time together. Any help would be appreciated.

First off NM is by no means the only state in the west that voted for Obama. You have to include CO, NV, CA, OR, & WA. And I for one did not vote for him. Although I am pretty embarrassed by the stupidity of 56% of this state. Second if you want to avoid the knuckle draggers you need to take up...

I'm getting hit with about $3500 between state and federal. You are right............ it does SUCK

Ya I own a Scoutguard camera too and have a buddy who has the Bushnell Trophy cam. Both are excellent cams. I really like the camo version Scoutguard. Its really small and blends in so well it seldom noticed. That alone is its own security.

I too use 8x for almost all of my glassing. I do have a spotting scope that comes into use on those rare occasions when I really do need more power. Thing is when I do NEED more power 10x just isn't going to cut it anyway so why waste room in my pack, weight, money, on something that is...

:) Truce

There's any easy fix for that, and you don't have to change a thing. Most opticians/optical shops sell a liquid lens cleaner that has antifogging properties. Pearle Vision markets a product called Kleer-Fog that works wonders. There are lots of products out there. Works wonders on binos, rifle...

Who's trying to convert you?????? I repeat......hold off on purchasing them they'll be available at a better price. And I already said I may even buy another one if I can get them at a reasonable price. So where is the coversion factor. I NEVER said ANYWHERE that you should convert to asian...

Comparatively Leupold and Nikon already are giveaways. BTW both of those two asian (Leupold uses mostly if not wholly asian components)companies would be included in the mix of "Asian optics companies", that I originally refered to. ;>)

John, At least you have an open mind. I'm not saying you should just take my word for it. Give it some time. Building a bino (or rifle/spotting scope) is not the mystery it once was. The one point you are wrong about though is that its not a buck or two.......its multiple hundreds or even...
