I set my cams along trails leading into saddles or other terrain features that concentrate game movement.In Az setting cams on water is an excellent way to get them stolen, and while some do good hunting water, Coues are wary enough in their normal state, when around water they are on hyper-alert mode knowing they are in a danger-zone…

Trail cams are another way to see what’s around,and a lot of fun, but nothing beats boots on the ground, watching these amazing deer, and enjoying all that the Mt’s of So. Arizona have to offer…

Hopefully I can get a good look at some of these bucks during the jan2014 bow season, last year all the big Coues bucks I had scouted either moved out or never gave me a shot…

AKKK… Nix the MRE’s(Not as much experence as Mike, but 6years of chokeing down MRES may make my opinion count for something), and go with the Mt. House brand or simular dehy. foods…

Peanutbutter and a bag of bagels with a chunk of cheese will give you a good blast of what the body needs for a few days and it travels good, but you wont care to see any of them on your plate afterwards for awhile…

Those ramin noodle dealys with the 1lbs can of cooked roast beef also travel well and give you ahot meal at night…

Bon Apetit…

Very cool David… Not to be a nay-sayer, but… It is very hard to type a point by just it’s tip, to type as Clovis is alittle “easyer” because of it’s thicker cross-section shape(not all Clovis have a flute), your expert will have to rely on manufacturing process, workmanship, grade of material,etc which is subject to opinion…

Either way, It is an awesome find, and knowing there are artifacts beneath our feet from the ancient past does hold a special place in the hearts of hunters, more so in Trad hunters I believe because of what we do…

Very Cool, do you hunt for arrowheads??? Does the site have a name??? I know people that could get info on it that probably wont be made public… The oldest arrowhead I’ve found was a Kessel(NY) 9000-10,000 years old (No Clovis, Yet)… Finding arrowheads has been a life-long hobby of mine, between hunting critters that is. Here in Arizona it is illegal to remove artifacts, but that doesnt stop me from looking and finding NA camp sites while I’m either bow hunting or scouting(shed hunting), just to sit amoung the remains is enough for me…

Note: Found sites are GPS marked and reported with no disturbance by me…

I find deer most times while glassing, sometimes they are in a stalkable possition, direction of travel, wind in my favor, bigg enough to make the effort, but most of my glassing is to ID areas so I can set treestands or make blinds for future hunts, Bow season doesnt start untill 1Jan 2014 here for me in Az (I have a week of Bow in NY, begining of Nov into first week of rifle season(2weeks total this year in NY)…

Monsoons just ended here, amazing how the wild flowers blow-up and the green pops…

Sorry MHey, all of Gods critters have a reason for being, but I guess even God had an off day when he made chi&%ers…

… Sorry, No photos of the fire-ants or chiggers, they are too small and my focus is getting away from them, not getting the ‘photo op”…

Enjoy…
