they are a pretty hard animal to hunt. we sometimes have a little trubble hunting them to but a little glassing and time you will find the one you are looking for.

Yea I used to hunt them around the Sierra Vista area in the mid 70s as I was in the army there, used to use a recurv bow , I don't remember compounds being around back then. Have a good1, Mike

1st compound bow I ever seen was in about 1974 or 75. I bought one in 78. PSE came out with a 4 wheel and a 2 wheel I bought the 2 wheel Pacer. But I sure do miss that old Ben Pearson recurve I had in the 70's.

I tried a few times this fall, but it seemed like the only deer that I could find were being chased by my dogs.

I did see one little spike, but I figured I would give him some more time to grow.

I took a little 5 by 5 and my dad took a spike. Got mine in the next canyon over, hunter canyon. But it turned out to be one that had been coming past our house before season so I have pictures of both. My dad took the spike from off our porch, he did get out and about earlier in the season but due to heath issues decided to take the spike closer to home. We fill out tags every year but don't try too hard to get trophy class.... just meat hunters.

No pictures of them dead since they were not too big but this is a picture of them before season. After season we had a big buck come in near the house took a few pictures of him but not posted yet.
