One of the best things the Utah DWR has done for mule deer hunters in recent memory is the creation and management of an on-line forum. Typically, the DWR’s actions impact mule deer hunters only in negative ways.
Among other things, the forum allowed the DWR to maintain a pulse on how the hunting community felt about them. I guess they got too much heat. The DWR decided they had no business having a forum and that it was in competition with other forums, so they cancelled it.
There is a version of that forum still in existence. It is managed by a group that calls themselves Utah Wildlife Network. The DWR archive is here: http://utahwildlife.net/dwr_forum/
Or, better yet – here is a forum exclusively about MULE DEER:
MULE DEER FANATIC FORUM
Check out Mr. Kevin C. Paulson. He says:
I am obsessed with hunting, conservation and getting to know great people.
Go ahead and be one of the great people he gets to know.

I think it’s one of them 2-legged 2 points!
Even though Mule Deer are much smarter than whitetailed deer, if you could find a whitetail dear like this – you’ld really have something. This post comes from my whitetail hunting friend, Mr. Rex Howell. A link to his site is provided in the sidebar under Deer Camp Blog.

Trophy Dear
My brother Paul, who just had his 50th birthday and is NOT going through a midlife crisis, sent me this pic.
This beautiful (single) woman owns the Huddleston Ranch in Texas.
All 8000 acres of it.
Trophy deer galore.
If you look hard you will notice that there is a deer in the picture too!
