Some Cerakote drying about 5 hours after coating.

We move them to here to hang after an hour or so to get them out of harms way.

These were all killed in AZ. All make the Arizona book. Two make B&C. The large one, my fathers, was 5th in the state for a short time I believe. The larger two are his. The 108" is mine. It had only 1" in deductions for typical score. Barely makes the AZ book. Shot it when I was 12 with a 7mag.
My dads two bucks were also both killed with a 7mag. The smaller scores 114 and the larger is 125typical, 137.4 non-typical.

Again they're Coues Whitetail from Arizona. All on fair chase land. No ranches, guided hunts, or bullshit. I feel thats important to mention today with all the farm grown deer out there. Farm grown deer that eat from feeders dont count.

And for those of you back east, deer are much smaller out here

Re: "Drying Racks"

Thanks guys. My dads pretty good at whitetail hunting.
The scores are Net. I figured people would assume Net and not gross(hope I spelled that right)


The large buck, and my buck were killed one canyon from eachother. I think my dad took a 106, and a 90something from the same area. That place has some great genetics.

I dont do much deer hunting. More into Varmints and targets.
But my dad should be guiding people in some of the places he knows. The draw odds for his fav units are almost undrawable though. Getting a tag for most game in AZ is a lottery
