Default RE: Hunting September Mulies

Well deer in September probably won't be moving around all that much
on less you get a freek cold snap...
And they are not rutting yet so I don't think calling will be helpful in any way.....
Generally Its just too hot..
I'd be doing alot of spot and stocks...Don't expect see mature bucks moving around in the evening, you'll see does and small bucks moving,
but chances are mature bucks won't move until well after legal shooting time is over..
But you can expect to see them moving to their bedding grounds before dawn..
This would be the best time to catch them and plan a stocking strategy..
But expect to do hours and hours of glassing in case you don't see them moving..
Knowing howand actually seeingspot bedded mule deer through binoculars is a skill in itself,(you only see parts and peices ) and at long distances even thriough the best bino's they can look like plant life or rock formation..
So do what you can to practice this..
Get a quality pair of bino's and a good spotting (if you can)
I live in British Coumbia so I don't now how hard it is to draw a tag but
Nevada Trophy Unit (at least to me) seems a hard one to get...
So get the best equipment you can and just as importantly practice training your eyes to see deer through them.....
