NBomb500 Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 I always said I wouldn't shoot a mule deer...but I guess there's a first for everything! This year was a pretty good year and it was a lot of fun getting out glassing and hunting as much as I did. I had the chance to tag some real nice whitetail bucks this year, but passed for quite a few reasons. So my Dad and I saw this management mule deer buck that needed to be culled and seeing it was my last day to hunt I decided to take him. It was a fun hunt! Spotted this buck and his 15 does from about a half mile away and crawled in on them to about 100 yards. One shot dropped him dead in his tracks. Big o'l body and it would have been nice to see what he would have field dressed. My Dad had seen a really nice 170's class mule deer a few days earlier, but I didn't want to go after him when I knew there was a really nice whitetail around. Maybe I'll get a chance at that big muley next year!lol Anyway, here are a couple of pics:camera: of the buck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbeck Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Heck the blue tounge hit so hard I am surprised you saw any whitetail. good looking buck there, nothing wrong with putting a Muley on the ground on occasion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
