Congratulations on the deer. And nice shooting.
Some people say Whitetail taste better and they won't eat a muley, but I can't tell any difference myself. I like to eat both. I actually prefer Muleys because they are bigger and you get more meat.. I have never known Muley to interbreed with whitetail. they seem to stay away from each other.
