Mule Deer Hunting Essentials?
 

So I'm planning on going on a week long (7 Days) hunt for Mule Deer either for the 2005 or 2006 season and was wondering what everyone would pack. Now I'm not looking for only what you would pack into the field with you, but what you would have to camp with as well. This isn't going to be a backpacking trip, I'm going to be able to drive and park where I plan to camp so I don't need to pack light. I've already got a decent idea of what I'll need, but I was wondering what everyone here would take with them.

I really appreciate the feedback, I know the lists might get rather lengthy and it may take awhile to type it all out, but know that it isn't going to waste.

Just so you know - It will probably be just myself and my father, so pack for two if you could please. :)

Same essentials as any camp but with mulie's you better get yourself some good glass (spotting scope or bino's), LRF would be a nice assest and lots of patience to chase them truly big horns.

My advice is to sit down and mentally walk through your day from the time you wake up to the time you go to bed. Go through each activity and write down what you will need to accomplish it.
Do the same with your meals.
Then do some what ifs, for emergency planning.
That is pretty much your list of stuff you will need.
Each guys list is different because we may go about things differently.

I go up north to Vulcan Mountain, right next to the Canadian border. It's really the only place that I've ever scouted for Mulies.

same as any other hunt. dress in layers. take time to take a nice animal.

I agree with Skeeter 7mm, but remember pay attention to the wind haus that big mulie nose will smell you a long way away. And wear good camo for those weary eyes will spot you.
