You Can’t Take a Mule Deer without Your Gun

We’re blessed with a lot of mule deer out here in the West, but coyotes and wolves are starting to make mule deer hunting tough. A mule deer hunt is very popular with families and first-time big-game hunters, as well as residents. Schools in many areas let students out early to hunt opening week of mule deer season.
