I'd love to see some pictures of tradbows and mule deer! Please share your story too.
Here's one I killed in Utah in 2015. Shot him with a Toelke Super Static 64" 52#. 125 grain VPA broad head

Shot was at 11 FEET, then went 30 yards and fell over. I'll be back to hunt them again after I get a few more hunts out of the way.
This thread is great, keep 'em coming!
Never hunted mulies myself, very jealous.

Wyoming spot and stalk with a bamboo backed osage
I hunted high country mulies a few years ago. I never got a shot, super tough critter to hunt with a trad bow. These are impressive.
Great deer guys!
My one and only Mulie, New Mexico, Morrison Dakota 58" and 58# @ 29"; 30" LPP with a Woodsman on the end... little over 30 yd shot 50 yd recovery... Not the biggest buck out there, but the biggest one that showed up that day... ;) Horrible tasting "Sage/Cactus" meat... But I wasn't passing up that shot! First Mulie to give me a chance at a harvest coming from a Minnesota upbringing... And so far the only Mulie to do so...

Curious for those that have had success, were these deer killed from the ground or from a stand/blind?
Not to hijack the thread, just curious....

I'd actually seen him several times previously to our final encounter through my Swarovskis... But actually shot him over a water hole... No blind, just tucked into the shadows... Water was so low that literally the only chance at a shot was for something to come and put their nose in the water closest to me... He did... and I was lucky enough to make the shot...
