I shot this dude last year from about 320'ish yards if I can recall. Waited prone in the sun for 3 1/2 hours for him to switch shade but after looking at his bed, he didn't have to. Finally after getting on him at 10:30AM, he got up at about 2 PM. 100 grain TTSX through front shoulders. Trotted with his tail between his legs for about 30 yards and gave it up fast.

Bedded here in shade.

Only been in AZ for one season but I've got my eye on a few bucks now. Really, really love hunting these dudes.
