Submitted by: rickHH Grand Slam Regions - Arizona: ----------------------------- COUES DEER: ----------- Hints Stalking the hills and canyons is the preferred hunting method for this diminutive whitetail. With the rough terrain and the elusive nature of the Coues, youll need to take advantage of all daylight hours to locate bedding and feeding grounds. Coues small size and agile gait easily distinguishes them from mule deer or pronghorn in the area. A good pair of binoculars is essential for locating Coues in this uniform terrain. A .243 rifle or recurve bow should suit your needs. DESERT MULE DEER: ----------------- Hints Desert mule deer are gregarious animals, often forming large herds of mixed sexes. With their desert-like coloring, they can often rest comfortably under a tree where they remain nearly invisible. For this reason, stalking and still hunting are the preferred method of hunting muley. Stalking is best done early in the morning as herds move from feeding to bedding grounds. You may have to take some long range shots, so make sure to sight your rifle and use a high velocity cartridge. PRONGHORN ANTELOPE: ------------------- Hints Although challenging, stalking is the most rewarding method of hunting pronghorn. Good optics are necessary and hunters must remain completely out of sight of their game for a successful kill. A rifle with a flat trajectory, good shocking power, and long-range capabilities is your best choice. Be absolutely certain of your shot; many pronghorn can run a full mile or more when mortally wounded and valuable time can be lost tracking. DESERT BIGHORN SHEEP: --------------------- Hints Desert bighorn are gregarious, but separated by sex. Rams tend to stay with other rams of the same age, so one trophy status ram means that another is probably nearby. Patience and a good pair of binoculars are a sheep hunters best friend. Carefully glass any rough cliffs or crags, desert bighorn like to bed down where they can view the area around them. Because youll likely be taking most of your shots from a distance, quality optics and a high velocity, flat trajectory rifle are your best choice.
