RE: Hunting Mule Deer
IR, I' ve never hunted mulies in Mt, but just about every other western state. My days are spent glassing, glasssing and a little more glassing. I try to hit a good vantage point right away in the morning and start right out. It sounds easy, but you really have to be patient and really look an area over. As you probably know from your own experience, you hardly ever see a " whole" deer. Your looking for an ear, tine, tail. Normally when I just start glassing an area I start looking for a horizontal line since it will be out of place. If I can' t find anything this way, and I can' t glass promising ravines, I will walk them. But 80% of all of my success has been glassing and stalking, with the occational driving right by one and stopping.
