Mule Deer Fanatic

A Mule Deer and a Whitetail. Can you tell which is which?

I just don’t know about ‘them Texans

What do suppose this buck would score?

How do they get so big on that desert diet?

I wouldn’t pass this one up…

Deseret Land and Livestock and the surrounding area was once a premier locale for monster buck mule deer. This year, after many years of decline, a good one has surfaced:

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.
