Glassing for Coues Deer – My Set Up and Why

It’s January right now as I write this. January is most often associated with new beginnings and setting goals for the year. I support that with full force. However, I also heavily associate this month with coues deer hunting. January is archery deer season here in Arizona and coues deer hunting involves an immense amount of glassing. So, in light of that, and for those new to coues deer hunting, I’m going to lay out the glassing set up I use for these special little deer and why in the video below.

There’s certainly more than one way to skin a cat, but I’ve found this system to work great for my style of hunting. It’s versatile and I feel like I’m getting the most range for the least amount of weight. If you’ve never spent any time behind the glass for coues deer, I highly suggest trying your eye on them. They’ll up your glassing game tenfold and with the system I’ve laid out here, you’ll be well equipped.
