My buddy Tony gave me permission to share this photo on MM. Cant tell you how excited I am for him. After joining him on a tough 16A archery hunt a couple weekends he had built up some luck.
Yes that's his happy face.

He saw this buck last year briefly. He was actually preparing to shoot a smaller buck because he had limited time for this hunt when he found this guy again. When he first saw him he thought he was a mule deer, but his 90" buddy popped up and he verified it was a Coues. Made it all happen solo on public land. Not sharing unit. Scored 127 with a broken tine would go over 130.

Wow. Awesome. Thanks for sharing. Sit as far back as he wants, sit in between the horns, do whatever he wants, it his deer and his photo. Either way if you can't drool for that Coues, guess it is your own fault. Nice deer. As for me and my friends we will drool.

EDIT: There was a previous post that mine was referring to. Thankfully the other post has been removed.

That is an incredible Coues. No matter what the haters gonna throw out there. People who have never hunted Coues have no idea what a monster trophy that one is. Beautiful buck man. Way to go.
