This film is all about two lifelong friends chasing coues deer in New Mexico for the first time. Hunting coues has become very popular in recent years, so we decided to hop on the bandwagon. We knew that chasing these bucks with our bows was going to be tough, but thankfully we had been in this unit before and had a good idea on where they would be.
After a few days of scouting, we located a buck for opening day. However, things changed when we saw three nice bucks a few ridges over. This would be the group that Gaven would stalk and punch his tag on. It felt great to get a nice buck on opening day, but we still had one more tag to fill.
The next couple of days were rough. We still got into coues bucks, but we had our stalking attempts foiled by uncontrollable events. High winds, border patrol, and illegal immigrants made the rest of this hunt tough. Not to mention, the hunting pressure had increased as the hunt went on.
On day 4, Nick spotted two nice bucks in a valley that were rutting hard. He moved in, but they pushed their does into a bedding area and we lost sight of them. He never gave up, and moved in on them. After a few hours of moving through thick brush, he stumbled upon his buck and made a perfect shot.
We did not get our shots on video, but sometimes that’s the way it goes when you film hunts. After filming for other hunters all year, we wanted to enjoy chasing these bucks and worry less about our camera gear.
After this hunt, we definitely have the coues bug. Thankfully, we drew this hunt again and have another shot at chasing these awesome bucks!
