Question is not clear. You mean eating or hunting?

Taste ****** Whitetail
Hunting antlers ** Mule deer
Prefer hunting*** Either/or
Last year I got a 4x4 white tail and this year I got a 3x3 mulie, within a 1/4 mile of each other. The mule deer has a stronger taste (not bad or gamey) just stronger. The white tails that I have gotten in this same area, eating the same thing as the mule deer taste much better.
If you want antlers than go for mulies. Bobby
