Mule Deer Fanatic

CAN YOU?

Time was when most men hunted and few women were among the ranks. Today, male mule deer hunters are a minority – maybe 10-15% of the populace of any western state. Oddly, women mule deer hunters are on the increase. That is not to say that female hunters are plentiful. It should be noted that there are less than half the total number of mule deer hunters there were some twenty years ago. It is anyone’s guess as to the reason for increasing numbers of female hunters, but I welcome it. I don’t know which kind of woman appeals to me more, one driving a four wheel drive pickup or one posing with a trophy buck. Either way, I like both. Feast your eyes on these sights, gentlemen.

Looks like Mule Deer Hunters need to head east:

Carl Malone, of the Utah Jazz, killed this huge Mule Deer Buck:

Mike Thompson of British Columbia killed these monster bucks. Note the size of the necks. Mike also does his part in saving mule deer by killing predators. Mike video records his hunts – to see these, visit 4everhunting.com

In an effort to avoid mountain lions, it seems that Mule Deer have been fleeing Eastward by the truckload, as evidenced by these photos:   

A few big mule deer bucks to whet your appetite:

Is this for REAL?

Born Again Buck

While bowhunting this year, I met this gentleman who told me that if I was born again, I could get a nice buck like the one he got – which incidentally, is a monster buck. He handed me this photo and I took a picture of it. He was delighted about the changes that had come into his life by being born again and attributed his hunting success to these changes. I had some shots at very nice muley bucks, but did not connect, leaving me in the unenviable position of not being a chosen one.
