So it's getting close to go time for some of us. A bit over 3 weeks. Time to start sharpening broadheads and fine tuning, and tinkering. Also time to start hitting the high country here in UT and throughout the west.
I love hunting elk, but there is something about a group of bucks skylined at 10,00 feet that really get s me going. And right now I can't stop thinking about the velvet racked bucks in the high country. So this is for all of us going and some of you dreaming about mulies. Please post your kill shots and other pics.

Ryan, you don't have an LE tag this year do you???

Sept.1st it starts 2 months of probably the best darn Mule deer hunting in Southern Saskatchewan.I usually hunt all season and I think in 5 or 6 years I,ve never seen another hunter.Not uncommon to see 40-50 deer a day.Lots of 140-180" deer.

Mule deer are the toughest animals I have ever hunted, hands down. I accumulated 10 empty tags before finally putting number 11 on this one. And it's not like I was holding out and passing up little ones - they are just tough with a stickbow!

If everyone keeps showing pics like these I don't know if I can wait! Whip ten years for a buck like that is worth the wait,most locals never shoot one that nice bow or gun. Most of my good mulies pics are on slide film but here is a few form the winter range last december. Notice the one still in velvet.

QuoteOriginally posted by Steve O:Alberta and Saskatchewan are well known for our large whitetails. Not as well known is that me have a large number of trophy mule deer as well. I have heard that someone arrowed a buck that may be as high as top 5 in P & Y this fall.
A nice muley is my next quest. Got 5points built up in CO and am looking at spots in WY, MT, and ID to start going every year. Awesome photos--Thanks Ryan!
For example, I was looking at a picture of a 170 class buck a young fellow who works in Wholesale Sports in Saskatoon had shot. I noticed it was a 4X3 and when I mentioned it to him he said that he would not have taken the shot if he had been able to see that it was not a 4X4. Wouldn't you like to hunt in a place where someone would turn down a buck that scores 170. For another example I saw a nice 4x5 buck right on the edge of the small town where I live just yesterday. Had I realized that he was outside the town limits I would have sought permission from the landowner and put a stalk on him.
I still have 3 days to hunt in archery only season and I am hopeful that I will see him again.

Something about them that gets in your blood, I bumped my first mulie buck in Wyo last year trying to get close to a doe for a shot. Needless to say one encounter was all it took..I'm going to CO in search one next year! Hopefully I will start going every year.

TTT! Love seeing good mule deer. I'm torn every year if I should go to the pastures and chase mule deer or go to the creek and sit in a tree for whitetails. Lets see some more pics!!!

Well I said on the Antelope thread that goats were my favorite critter to stalk but these are a very close second. We are fortunate in MT to be able to hunt Mulies during their rut the last half of Nov. If you can hold out that long it just don't get much better than that.

My son is about 40yds from this buck in his stocking feet trying to close the distance but a bedded doe on the backside of the hill saved his bacon!! This pic was taken in the Sandhills of Nebraska on the ranch my son works at in the summer.

Idaho muley ... the absolute best stalk I have ever made, hunting the sage brush last day of the season.

Hey David good to hear from you,Doc says it went well and I am feeling good. I will be off my foot eight weeks so right now that is the hardest part. Our early bow seasons start in a few weeks and I will miss that season entirely, but hopefully I'll get a wack at them in late November.
best to ya, kenny

I was hiking with my wife in Gallatin National Forest, saw a real nice 4x4 but didn't have a camera with me. Hoping to get a deer b license, found a good couple places to chase after whitetail....but next year will be all muleys for this guy! Antelope elk bear and hopefully mountain lion and turkey as well :) I love Montana!!!
