RE: Mule deer or Whitetail

Just my experience, but it's much easier to get close to a big mulie than a whitetail. They are just much more timid. I think part of that has to do with the terrain I have hunted for both. The...

RE: day after ice storm...go out?

If you have to drive there, stay in bed. If it's just a matter of walking to the stand/spot, I say why not? Not like you can drive to the office and you'll definitely hear any deer that are moving.
