I have applied for a bull elk tag for zone/area/unit 49 for private property and if I'm not drawn was thinking about applying for a mule deer tag if it's available for that area. The closest town to the area I'm looking at is Tensleep. Does anyone know if there is a huntable population of mule deer in that area, or even if their is a season? Thanks.
yes there is muleys in this area. if u go east about 10 miles u will get into very good country. there is lots of dear, but if u rifle hunt u will not be alone! bow season is much more fun!
I live in Worland, 24 miles from Tensleep, the deer hunting is ok. You need to work hard for a trophy, a nice 4 point isnt to hard to find. A 24" to 26" buck can be found if you hunt and are patient.
