Heres my mulie
Heres the 3x3 I got the last weekend of hunting season last year using a model 700, 30-06 spittin 180 coreloks. I bow hunted the entire season of archery and gun and saw some nice class 170's whitetails that I just failed to capitalize on, but the last weekend I headed out with the rifle. Its not a biggie but at least I didn't have to eat tag-soup. 
I was in about a mile and a half on a forestrey logging road and was glassen a meadow and didn't see anything, other than a cow moose and a yearling going across the meadow, after a moment, I noticed movement, deer starting popping out of the ground, one deer, two, three, now I know the bad boy is going to show and sure enough within an hour of darkthirty I stalked to within 50 yrds and shot him through the heart and it jumped straight up and fell within 10ft from the shot, you can probaly see the blood on the snow from the shot. I dragged him out using a sled and he tasted very good, but I have shot whit tails in the same area eating the same food and they seem to have a better taste than the mulie, the mulies is good but seems somewhat stronger to the white tail which seems to be more blander.

RE: Heres my mulie
nice deer buddy,
i have never had a whitetail that tasted better than the mule deer we have here where i hunt. im sure that the fact that they eat alfalfa year round has something to do with it, but they taste great. the antelope there taste even better.
anyway, great buck, and just think, were half way back round to another fall!!!

Way to go Bobby. I hunted one buck all season, I never got a shot at him.
